"In modern clinical settings, medical devices, such as infusion devices used to administer fluids and drugs, carry risks from use errors, requiring a focus on usability and human factors engineering (HFE)" Herrero et al (2025).
"Cetuximab-based therapy is prone to develop skin complications. Our study aims to identify the impact on the central venous access by cetuximab-based therapy in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC)" Huang et al (2025).
"In this study, CVCs coated with green and facile laccase-manganese phosphate hybrid nanostructures [(Mn3(PO4)2·HNSs] prevented bacterial adhesion by 100%, 80%, 60%, and 58% for Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli, respectively" Golroudbari et al (2025).
"In 2022, our pediatric and women's medical center observed a 166.67% increase in central line bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) in the pediatric population. A quality-focused group was initiated to implement changes to reduce CLABSIs" Kovar et al (2025).
"Severe lesions can result from NE extravasation in dogs and cats, leading to euthanasia. Although phentolamine remains the treatment of choice, lesions may heal with alternative supportive measures" Vasquez et al (2025).
"Hypophosphatemia following iron infusion is thought to be a relatively rare complication of intravenous iron infusion, though research is beginning to demonstrate that it occurs more often than previously assumed" Pebdani (2025).
"We quantified the impact that stressors associated with the COVID-19 pandemic had on patient safety, as measured by central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Healthcare Safety Network" Sapiano et al (2025).
"To determine the occurrence and risk factors of contrast media extravasation (CME) during contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT)" Wang et al (2025).
"Ultrasound-guided catheter insertion and nonsilicone catheters effectively prevented PICC complications. The evidence for other comparisons was too uncertain to draw conclusions, highlighting the urgent need for additional studies on prevention and control interventions" Dobrescu et al (2025).
"Compared with internal jugular vein, external jugular vein access has obvious advantages: the location of external jugular vein is superficial and easy to find, the utilization of external jugular vein is easy to learn and master, and the external jugular vein is of little importance to the human body" Zhen et al (2025).
"To secure peripheral venous access under sonographic guidance, LPCs would provide additional advantages such as a channel for backflow and sampling and longer dwell time compared to conventional peripheral intravenous cannulas" Sam et al (2025).
"Risks of occupational exposures to hazardous drugs (HDs) have been documented and identified as needing to be monitored. To decrease potential exposures in a community hospital, this project evaluated the impact of implementing a hazardous drug wipe sampling technology (BD HD Check system; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ) and accompanying environmental procedures, risk level scoring assessment, and recordkeeping tools on identifying HD surface contamination" Hayes-Porter and Shay (2025).
