  schema:description "A fever, shivering, or redness, pain or pus where a central line goes in can mean the line is infected. Blood is taken from the line and from an arm vein before antibiotics start, and antibiotics should not wait for the results. Some line infections can be cleared with the line left in; others, such as a serious infection or certain germs, mean the line has to come out."@en ;
