Blood purification therapy is highly dependent on vascular access. Infection directly affects patient prognosis and medical safety. While various infection control measures exist clinically, their implementation standards, risk identification, and dynamic management levels remain inconsistent. This paper reviews the risk factors, intervention methods, and management models for vascular access infections based on literature review, and summarizes existing shortcomings in the prevention and control system, including inadequate implementation of operational procedures, lagging monitoring systems, and inconsistent staff training levels. Integrating quality control and evidence-based practices, an optimization plan is developed centered on risk stratification, process standardization, and continuous monitoring. The supporting value of information technology tools and multidisciplinary collaboration is highlighted, promoting a shift in infection management from passive response to proactive prevention, and improving the overall infection control capabilities of blood purification centers.
