"Application of EMLA cream for 64 minutes or tetracaine gel for 44 minutes at the site of TIVADs resulted in a safely conducted, painless non-coring needle puncture for 95% of patients" Jiang et al (2025).
"Implementation of evidence-based continuous quality improvement strategies achieved substantial and sustained reductions in peripherally inserted central catheter complications among premature infants, supporting systematic adoption of multidisciplinary approaches to optimize vascular access outcomes in vulnerable neonatal populations" Zhu et al (2025).
"This means that in their original 3SITES trial, most of subclavian vein catheterizations were landmark-based, which was associated with a higher risk of immediate mechanical complications. In contrast, real-time ultrasound can overcome the drawbacks of the landmark-based subclavian vein access technique and improve its risk-benefit profile" Zhang and Zhang (2025).
"This study aimed to investigate the ability of NEWS2 ≥ 5p to identify sepsis, per Sepsis-3 criteria, among adult patients with community-acquired infection and positive blood cultures" Prytz et al (2025).
"Our data provide some evidence that following a temporary decline of CRBSI during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, CRBSI now returned to that observed in the pre-pandemic era" Schmidt-Hieber et al (2025).
"VAST presence was associated with greater use of escalation pathways and varied device type/technique such as ultrasound guided-PIVCs and midlines. However, limited staffing restricts the broader implementation of these benefits" Marsh et al (2026).
"This paper reviews the use of home intravenous antibiotics (IVABs) in children with cystic fibrosis (CF). We outline a program we developed during the COVID-19 pandemic for enhancing the experience for children and families by involving full multidisciplinary follow up via video for the duration of the antibiotic course" Collins et al (2025).
"The umbilical cord clamp method is a safe, single-operator alternative for UVC fixation. This technique had a low rate of catheter migration, did not increase the risk of infection, and was cost-effective and simple" Tomaszkiewicz et al (2025).
"A repeat X-ray unexpectedly showed the original line at an optimal position in the lower superior vena cava. The only difference was the baby’s arm position, which changed from being perpendicular to side-lying, prompting concern about whether limb position affects line tip interpretation" Pallickal and Pappa (2025).
"Storing WB at or above RT could have significant implications for prehospital and military transfusion practices and prevent its waste. This study determined if FWB stored above room temperature led to positive bacteria cultures" Stapleton et al (2025).
"A sustained reduction in CLABSI rates was achieved through a multifaceted approach integrating standardized surveillance, evidence-based bundles, and continuous audit-and-feedback" Pollack et al (2025).
"Through real-time monitoring and alert functions, the system facilitated the timely detection and management of infusion abnormalities, enhancing the quality of infusion management for patients, ensuring infusion safety, and improving patient satisfaction" Tong et al (2025).
