"The early prediction of CLABSI in ICU patients by means of PCT, NLR, and PLR is of remarkable significance. It can provide a precious reference for clinical diagnostic and treatment strategies" Li et al (2025).
"In this study, 101 patients discharged to a SNF on OPAT required considerable post-hospital care coordination and experienced high readmission and mortality rates within 90 days, contributing to literature characterizing OPAT patients in other settings" Langenstroer et al (2025).
"While guidelines on contents and packing strategies of emergency kits for specific tasks and specialized situations exist, data for the design of out-of-hospital emergency kits in a general urban population is lacking. It may be possible to transfer the promising results of modern in-hospital packing strategies such as task-based package organization (TPO) to an Emergency Medical Service setting" Laxar et al (2025).
"Pandemic incidences of hospital-acquired infections, central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs), and catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) increased, underscoring the importance of increasing workforce-ready nurses" Ashburn et al (2025).
"Catheters in the jugular vein may be preferred for puppies and kittens under 1.2 kg and 0.3 kg, respectively. Utilizing the cephalic vein for venous access may facilitate rapid and less technically challenging intravenous catheter placement in patients under 12 weeks old" Zilberfarb et al (2025).
"The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between catheter dwell time and the risk of CLABSIs caused by multidrug-resistant and common pathogens in patients with central venous catheters (CVCs) and peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs)" Pitiriga et al (2025).
"We report a case of a 71-year-old female patient on a chronic hemodialysis (HD) program who had developed IE. Her first symptoms were fever and malaise. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) examinations were performed, revealing vegetations on the tip of HC and the anterior and posterior leaflets of the tricuspid valve (TV)" Šačić et al (2025).
"This systematic review aimed to examine the evidence base for clinical outcomes and/or quality of life (QoL) in adults receiving PN as MCBs compared to COMs in hospital and community settings" Jones et al (2024).
"Upper limb functional exercise combined with an intelligent grip ball can reduce the incidence of catheter-related thrombosis, improve coagulation function, increase compliance with functional exercise, and improve nursing satisfaction in patients with PICCs" Bu and Wu (2025).
"Neonatal exposure to pain can lead to altered pain perception in later years of life. Despite the availability of measures to alleviate pain, routine use is lacking. We decided to conduct a quality improvement (QI) study to increase the use of analgesia during venipuncture, a common procedure in neonatal intensive care units, from a baseline of 0% to 50% over 8 weeks" Shah et al (2025).
"This study demonstrates that the use of 1.35% taurolidine significantly reduces the rate of recurrent CRBSIs and CVC removals due to CRBSIs compared to 0.9% saline in adult patients with CIF reliant on HPS" Nerstrøm et al (2025).
"Digitalised interventions for CLABSI prevention seem to be effective in reducing infection rates, likely because of increasing compliance to established guidelines for CLABSI prevention" Obama et al (2025).
