"Peripheral intravenous cannula induced complications tend to occur after a relatively prolonged dwell time. Parental education, mask use, insertion set kit, side of cannulation, cannula dressing, and blood administration were predictors for these complications" Moltot et al (2025).
"Implementing a structured, layered quality improvement approach was associated with a significant decrease in CLABSI rates" Sirago et al (2025).
"A central line-associated bloodstream infection prevention rapid response team (CLABSI-RRT) huddle was convened to provide just-in-time support to staff caring for patients with high-risk central venous catheters (CVCs)" Rios-Rivera et al (2025).
"It was observed that stress ball-squeezing and balloon inflation methods applied during peripheral vascular access alleviated the pain and fear of children and positively affected their vital signs" Sakalli et al (2026).
"In this randomized controlled trial (RCT), Couper et al. explored the impact of medication administration via the interosseous (IO) versus intravenous (IV) route on 30-day survival" Long et al (2025).
"Washout is effective for reducing skin loss in paediatric extravasation injuries, particularly in grades 3 and 4. Lower limb cannulation carries a significantly higher risk of skin loss. Injury grade should guide urgent washout intervention" Fernando et al (2025).
"The HDC method was found to be easier to perform by healthcare professionals, caused fewer complications and was less expensive than the intravenous fluid infusion method. Further prospective studies are needed" Özkaya et al (2025).
"We aimed to determine whether an adapted British Renal Society Infection Risk Screening Tool, applied during a nurse-led vascular access consultation, identifies patients at increased risk of subsequent infection-related hospitalisation and can inform de-selection of buttonhole puncture" Pinto et al (2025).
"To evaluate whether discarding 1 mL is sufficient for reliable laboratory testing after use of 4% tetrasodium EDTA catheter lock solution (Kitelock™) in PICC" Rajdl et al (2025).
"This study highlights the favorable outcomes and safety profile of the OPAT program at our tertiary teaching hospital. Tailored interventions and careful antibiotic selection are warranted for specific patient groups" Infantino et al (2025).
"This off-label strategy should follow infection-prevention bundles, non-vesicant infusion limits, clear labeling, and documentation. Both single- and double-lumen pediatric CVCs may be considered where dimensional compatibility with midline specifications is ensured" Mantri et al (2025).
"This study demonstrates a low rate of epicutaneo-caval catheters occlusion in neonates receiving parenteral nutrition without heparin infusion. These findings support the safety and feasibility of a heparin-free approach in neonatal central catheter management when standardized care protocols are followed" D'Andrea et al (2025).
