"We compared the diagnostic accuracy of CT venography with ultrasonography for screen-detected PICC-related venous thromboembolism (VTE)" Guman et al (2025).
"Data were collected from 68 Canadian sentinel acute care hospitals between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2023, for intensive care unit central line-associated bloodstream infections (ICU-CLABSIs), hip and knee surgical site infections (SSIs), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt SSIs and paediatric cardiac SSIs. Case counts, rates, patient and hospital characteristics, pathogen distributions and antimicrobial resistance data are presented" Canadian Nosocomial Infection Surveillance Program (2025).
"The aim of the present review is to present the current trends regarding administration of peripheral parenteral nutrition (PPN) after colorectal resections and highlight any potential correlations between PPN and postoperative inflammatory reaction, as well as short-term nutritional status" Frountzas et al (2025).
"We speculate that daily consumption of yogurt with live cultures posed a high cumulative exposure to Lactobacillus species either through external contamination of our patient's CVC or translocation of the ingested organisms from his gastrointestinal tract into the bloodstream" Rahim et al (2025).
"The innovation of simulation-based education tutorials was effective in enhancing nurses' practices. It also provided insight for continuous nursing education and evaluation that will impact the clinical practice routines in oncology care, thus saving patients from potential adverse effects of chemotherapy" Soomar et al (2025).
"utpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) program has become an established clinical practice globally, though its implementation varies across jurisdictions. This review explores the implementation of OPAT within contemporary healthcare systems" Mohammed et al (2025).
"The chest radiograph method could more effectively predict the CAJ position than the surface measurement in the overall cohort. However, subgroup analysis revealed that this advantage was not statistically significant in patients with BMI > 24.9 kg/m2, suggesting reduced efficacy in high-BMI populations" Li et al (2025).
"The current guidelines do not specify how the catheter tip position (axillary vein of the chest wall or subclavian vein) modulates the complication risks. This study investigates the relationship between the tip location, irritant drug properties and vascular injury" Zhao et al (2025).
"Although information on IV iron is widely available online, its overall quality and content are generally poor and not easily accessible to the public. This underscores the opportunity for knowledge translation efforts aimed at developing online resources that are both accurate and understandable" Zhou et al (2025).
"Ultrasound-guided peripheral vascular cannulation appears to be more effective and safer than the conventional technique in infants, particularly in complex or critical care contexts" Casal-Guisande et al (2025).
"The study indicates that nurse anesthetists' knowledge and experience can be utilized in the future selection and insertion of vascular access for patients, as well as in training and education on PICCs" Linqvist Leonardsen et al (2025).
