"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).
A new publication on Ultrasound-guided arterial catheterization with acoustic shadowing technique: A randomized controlled trial from the Journal of Vascular Access Ultrasound-guided arterial catheterization with…
"Video-assisted teaching may improve psychomotor skills in CVC care; however, its effects on anxiety reduction and student satisfaction remain inconclusive. Integrating video-assisted methods with other strategies may enhance both skill acquisition and emotional well-being in nursing education" Koç et al (2026).
"Hypodermoclysis appears to be a safe, effective, and well-accepted option for pediatric dehydration. Its incorporation into pediatric clinical protocols may reduce the need for repeated venipuncture and associated distress, thereby improving patient comfort and family satisfaction" Silva et al (2026).
"In elderly patients, clinically indicated PIVCs removal was associated with significantly prolonged catheter dwell time but an increased risk of all-cause PIVCs failure. Vigilant monitoring for occlusion is particularly recommended during the first 96 hours of catheter retention in this population" Jiang et al (2026).
"Advanced age, multiple CVCs, parenteral nutrition, immunosuppressants, and mechanical ventilation were associated with higher CRBSI risk during the early phase of CVC use" Li et al (2026).
"The optimal laboratory monitoring frequency for outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy-related adverse events (OPAT-AEs) during daptomycin therapy is not well defined" Sunagawa et al (2026).
"Findings reveal heterogeneous use of hypodermoclysis in LTC, often at low volumes and over prolonged periods. Given the association between staffing levels and hypodermoclysis use, strengthened interprofessional engagement and collaboration may be needed to optimize hydration practices" Deniau et al (2026).
"Ultrasound-guided, nonfluoroscopic bedside placement of right internal jugular vein tunneled catheters by nephrologists is feasible, safe, and cost-effective" Ganesh Srinivasa Prasad P et al (2026).
