"This scoping review addresses this gap by mapping the available literature on peripheral intravenous catheter use in hospitalised older people to identify the characteristics of the existing evidence and opportunities for future research" Howell et al (2025).
"Empowering frontline nurses to lead QI is a highly effective strategy for improving patient safety outcomes. This project demonstrates that a "culture of zero" is attainable through interprofessional collaboration, data-driven practices, and sustained leadership support" Amaro et al (2025).
"This study developed and validated Sudan's first PICC training curriculum. The program combines theoretical instruction, simulation, and supervised practice, with contextual adaptations for feasibility. Implementation could improve patient safety, reduce complications, and strengthen national capacity in vascular access care" Abdallah et al (2025).
"Iron extravasation, a complication of intravenous iron therapy, can cause permanent cosmetic damage and distress. Current treatment options for reversing staining are limited, costly and require multiple sessions" Haggett and Bekhor (2025).
"This study demonstrated that training improved the nurses' knowledge and skills related to the Z-track technique, leading to increased usage frequency 1 month later. Retention of knowledge and skills was supported by applying the technique in clinical practice" Barış Eren et al (2025).
"This case report describes a T-DM1 skin extravasation treated with multimodal medical measures as opposed to a more conservative approach" Gamvroulas et al (2025).
"Long phlebotomy duration in whole blood donors has been associated with increased vasovagal reaction rate. Here, we wanted to re-examine this relationship" Paalvast et al (2025).
"Most EP infants admitted to an all-referral Level IV NICU had a blood culture drawn. The rate of positive cultures was relatively low, although EP infants with positive blood cultures had higher rates of mortality and morbidities" Sharadgah et al (2025).
"This project aimed to improve nurses' IVP management in oncology patients by implementing evidence-based recommendations" Wang et al (2025).
"To summarise the evidence for monitoring and management of invasive arterial blood pressure in critically ill patients and optimise critical care outcomes" Zhang et al (2025).
"Effective NC disinfection before catheter use is therefore critical. This study evaluated the efficacy of three disinfectant agents across varying decontamination durations and drying times" Kuek et al (2025).
"This study identifies risk factors for BSI in pediatric HM patients, aiming to establish evidence-based protocols for infection prevention and risk stratification, thereby informing targeted healthcare policies to reduce complications and improve treatment outcomes" Zhang et al (2025).
