Which action is a part of the bundle of measures used to prevent nosocomial catheter-related infecti

Which action is a part of the bundle of measures used to prevent nosocomial catheter-related infections?
1. Chlorhexidine is most effective when swabbed starting at the insertion site and moving outward in a circular motion.
2. It is recommended that transparent dressings be changed every 72 hours to prevent growth of bacteria on the skin.
3. Current recommendations support changing IV tubing every 48 hours on patients at risk for catheter-related infections.
4. During insertion of a central line the doctor should wear a cap and mask, sterile gloves, and a gown, and the patient should have a full body drape.
