"The NEVAT group provides the first European position paper on neonatal vascular access, aiming to improve homogeneity in device selection, insertion, and maintenance, promoting a safer and more consistent care" Barone et al (2026).
"Patients classified as high risk in the A-DIVA scale required more puncture attempts, had shorter PIVC dwell times, and experienced more negative outcomes. Using technologies such as ultrasound is beneficial for patients at high risk of failure on the first attempt" Prates et al (2026).
