Comparative performance of 24G and 26G short peripheral catheters in neonates – Full Text
"In this large neonatal cohort, 26G SPCs were associated with a statistically longer dwell time than 24G SPCs, although the absolute difference was small. Therapy completion and complication rates were comparable between the groups, whereas first-attempt insertion success rates were higher with 26G SPCs" van Rens et al (2026).
