"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).
"We anticipate that SVI-guided resuscitation will reduce IV fluid volume compared to standard care. This personalized approach, tailoring fluid and vasopressor administration to the individual's hemodynamic needs, has the potential to improve outcomes for patients with sepsis" Ter Horst et al (2025).
"The findings emphasize the necessity of systematically addressing patients' symptoms and individual needs in the postoperative care of the central venous catheter. Incorporating these aspects as a mandatory element in the standardized documentation template within the electronic health record will constitute an important first step toward enhancing patient-centred care" Lithner et al (2025).
"We report the case of a pediatric patient with kidney failure and bilateral central venous occlusion, in whom conventional dialysis access was no longer feasible. Following multidisciplinary evaluation, a dialysis catheter was surgically inserted directly into the right atrium via a lower mini-sternotomy" Nucera et al (2025).
"Antibiotic lock therapy (ALT) delivers high-concentration antimicrobials into catheter lumens and has been proposed to prevent infections in hemodialysis (HD) patients" Sarmadi et al (2025).
"Device failure and CLABSI are the CVAD-associated complications with the highest incidence rates. Comparing CVAD subtypes, TCVADs may have a higher complication risk than TIVADs" Sakthivel et al (2025).
