"A quality improvement project to standardize peripheral intravenous catheter insertion, maintenance, and documentation was implemented with the goal of aligning with professional standards for peripheral intravenous catheter removal as clinically indicated" Coleman et al (2025).
"Extravasation of calcium gluconate solution is a rare yet serious complication in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), capable of causing significant skin necrosis, ulceration and long-term functional impairment" Li et al (2025).
"Infusion therapy, used to administer medications for multiple chronic diseases, can be performed in hospital outpatient departments (HOPDs), patients' homes, ambulatory infusion centers, and physicians' offices" Cullen et al (2025).
"In addition to evidence-based bundle compliance elements and leadership visibility of device de-escalation opportunities, hospitals should optimize methods to encourage collaborative discussions between nurses and physicians to impact central venous catheter utilization, reducing the risk of central line associated bloodstream infections" Baklouti et al (2025).
"Compared with CVCs and AVGs, AVF remains the lowest mortality risk. Early planning and education regarding vascular access are essential to improve long-term outcomes in hemodialysis patients" Miao et al (2025).
"We hope that ongoing training with this simulation model, along with demonstration of competency, will result in standardized central line care and a decrease in CLABSI rates at our institution" Smith et al (2025).
"This scoping review aimed to explore how the COVID-19 pandemic affected vascular access practices and catheter-related complications, with the objective of mapping innovations, identifying emerging trends, and summarizing preventive and therapeutic strategies" Celano et al (2025).
"Extensive literature has established equivalent efficacy of early intravenous (IV) to oral antibiotic transition. However, there is variability in adoption across practice settings" Juskowich et al (2025).
"Mortality in non-ICU patients with CVAD or midlines is significantly influenced by age, comorbidity burden, and COVID-19 related pneumonia. For CRBSI/CABSI, timely catheter removal and appropriate antibiotics are crucial for improving survival" Fattore et al (2025).
"Point-of-care (POC) testing offers expedited results with lower blood volume requirements than central laboratory (CL) tests, particularly for low-birth-weight infants" Parikh et al (2025).
"A high percentage of peripheral intravenous catheters remain unused during the postpartum period. Furthermore, women reported that these catheters were a hindrance to maternal and neonatal care, as well as breastfeeding" Monasor-Ortolá et al (2025).
"In the largest ran-domized controlled trial to date, we found that the EZ-IO had a faster insertion time compared to the SAM IO, but the time difference was unlikely to be clinically meaningful" Stiglitz et al (2025).
