CDC definition

Below is the English definition mentioned in Slovak here:

Inštitút pre rozvoj zdravotnej starostlivos-
ti v USA charakterizuje kavalovú infekciu ako bakterémiu/
fungémiu u pacienta s intravaskulárnym katétrom a aspoň
jednou pozitívnou hemokultúrou z periférnej žily, klinický-
mi príznakmi infekcie a so žiadnou viditeľnou príčinou in-
fekcie okrem katétra.

Catheter-Related BSI

Bacteremia/fungemia in a patient with an intravascular catheter with at least one positive blood culture obtained from a peripheral vein, clinical manifestations of infections (i.e., fever, chills, and/or hypotension), and no apparent source for the BSI except the catheter. One of the following should be present: a positive semiquantitative (>15 CFU/catheter segment) or quantitative (>103 CFU/catheter segment catheter) culture whereby the same organism (species and antibiogram) is isolated from the catheter segment and peripheral blood; simultaneous quantitative blood cultures with a >5:1 ratio CVC versus peripheral; differential period of CVC culture versus peripheral blood culture positivity of >2 hours

Glad it was what you were looking for. Still don't understand what the 'kavalova' means though. I added this as a reference comment and not as a suggested answer as this really is not my field - it was more or less a shot in the dark, having a few minutes to kill...
Note from asker:
Brilliant, thanks - I thought it might be catheter-related. How come I can't grade your answer?
This is definitely what it is - put it as an answer and I will grade it accordingly.
