"Despite common use of IV fluids, surveys of international clinicians reveal a concerning gap in knowledge regarding the specific electrolyte (sodium and chloride) content of different solutions, as well as the physiological consequences of fluid overload" Pal (2026).
"Improving paediatric medication safety requires coordinated system-level approaches that combine technology, standardisation, workforce training, human-factors design, and active caregiver engagement to achieve sustained reductions in preventable harm" Singh and Silburn (2026).
"The use of HAIC has become more prevalent over the last decade with more centers nation and worldwide developing HAI programs. Here, we review the history and origin of HAIC along with its evolution and outcomes of current applications" Baldwin et al (2026).
"Among the various types of HAIs, CLABSIs resulted in the highest laboratory charges, while LRTIs were identified as the most prevalent and demonstrated significantly increased direct medical charges" Zhao et al (2026).
"Our study confirms that VR distraction can significantly reduce fear in children undergoing intravenous cannulation, though pain scores were not significantly lowered. Multidimensional assessment (including subjective fear measures) is therefore important. VR may improve the patient and family experience of painful procedures" Xie et al (2026).
"This prospective pharmacokinetic study evaluated the adequacy of a novel daytime-only meropenem regimen adapted for OPAT in non-critically ill hospitalized patients" Briquet et al (2026).

"Here, we found the small-volume Kurin Lock ISDD reduced blood culture contamination rates and theoretically avoided contamination costs, despite low ISDD compliance" Dolin et al (2026).
"Local signs at catheter insertion sites are frequent and differ across catheter type. Redness is under-recognised in routine clinical assessment compared with expert review, supporting the need for standardized, potentially artificial intelligence-assisted, approaches in daily practice" Buetti et al (2026).
"Short peripheral intravenous catheters were widely used and failed early, while longer-duration devices were used less frequently despite lower failure rates" Fernández-Fernández et al (2026).
"We developed and evaluated the "Standardized Evaluation of Central venous catheterization using Ultrasound for Risk Elimination and Detection" (SECURED) protocol, which integrates validated point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) techniques into a unified, six-step sequential workflow" Choi et al (2026).
