"This is the main take-away point from the Early Versus Deferred Arterial Catheterization in Critically Ill Patients With Acute Circulatory Failure (EVERDAC) trial, which found that slightly fewer patients died in a group randomly assigned to not have an arterial catheter inserted unless it was truly needed, compared with putting one in immediately" Ho (2026).
"Consistent use of evidence-based intramuscular injection practices can reduce procedural risk, enhance safety, minimize pain, and support positive early health care experiences for infants and families" Van Curen and Rohan (2026).
"When conservative measures failed, we implemented a novel double-draw technique in which a second draw line was connected via a four-way stopcock and male-to-male adapter to the initial draw access (either a PIVC or port) to improve inlet flow" Sanchez et al (2026).
"This study aimed to evaluate whether using smart glasses can improve efficiency compared to conventional ultrasound-guided CVC" Wang et al (2026).
"Optimal CVAD selection is not merely a technical decision but a strategic clinical process that integrates patient, therapy, device, and health-system factors. Existing frameworks provide valuable guidance and should be interpreted within the clinical context in which they are applied, acknowledging differences in expertise, available resources, and models of care" de Souza et al (2026).
"Despite growing awareness of inappropriate PIVC use, unnecessary insertion persists, driven by cultural and organisational norms and risk-averse practices. Interventions to reduce PIVC use have been implemented, but their effectiveness and sustainability have not been systematically synthesised" Barrington et al (2026).
"This trial will evaluate whether a randomized trial comparing intravenous and oral fluid therapy is feasible in ED patients and whether oral fluid therapy can achieve prescribed fluid volumes comparable to those achieved with intravenous therapy" Biesenbach et al (2026).
"This case highlights the unpredictable clinical course of NMBD extravasation and demonstrates that recurrent paralysis may occur despite initial successful reversal, requiring quantitative neuromuscular monitoring, extended postoperative observation, and administration of repeat doses of sugammadex as delayed systemic absorption occurs" Crafton et al (2026).
"To examine the association between puncture arm and initial peripherally inserted central catheter tip positioning accuracy in female breast cancer patients and to explore related factors associated with malposition" Zhang et al (2026).
"This study supports a more uniform and safer OPAT practice in paediatric HAH units and provides an operational basis for protocol implementation and future evaluation, combining stability evidence for compounded preparations with paediatric administration requirements" Merino-Pardo et al (2026).
"Approximately one-quarter of discharged patients with a recorded SPC had no documented intravenous use. Potentially unnecessary SPC insertion was associated with age, sex and clinical presentation, while its association with triage acuity depended on adjustment for clinical context" Fernández Fernández et al (2026).
"Our primary objective is to compare the efficacy of the PIVO Pro at PIVC insertion for avoiding blood culture contamination to standard practice (typically specimen collection via venepuncture or a newly inserted PIVC)" Lovegrove et al (2026).
