"OPAT is typically administered in elastomeric devices, which release an infusion solution over a 24 h period and are meanwhile worn close to the body. This work aimed to evaluate the stability of the reserve antibiotics ceftazidime-avibactam and ceftolozane-tazobactam for OPAT use" Erdmann et al (2025).
"We aim to determine the accuracy of the anatomical landmark technique for finding the femoral vein vs. the ultrasound-guided technique. We hypothesize that the femoral vein location using anatomical landmarks is, on average, 10 mm or more away from the femoral vein location found using ultrasound" Sonka et al (2025).
"This article reviews fluid therapy principles for puppies and kittens, emphasizing their higher and distinct fluid and electrolyte requirements compared to adults" Burkitt-Creedon and Vernau (2025).
"We evaluated whether peripheral intravenous catheter (PIV) utilization and complications (i.e., infiltration/extravasation) differed between children hospitalized with pneumonia who received initial oral versus intravenous antibiotics" Cotter et al (2025).
"The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of Buzzy®, a vibrating cold device, to vapocoolant and control in reducing child-reported and parent-perceived pain during IV placement in the pediatric emergency department" Andrews et al (2025).
"A restrictive transfusion strategy significantly decreased the proportion of adults and children exposed to RBC transfusion. In most clinical contexts, there was no evidence of harm from a restrictive compared with a liberal transfusion strategy" Carson et al (2025).
"Managing central-line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) in children with long-term central venous catheters (CVC) is challenging. Catheter salvage strategy (CSS) can be attempted when intravenous therapy is essential, though it lacks standardization" Pellegrino et al (2025).
"The extravasation of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals presents a risk of radiation-induced injury. The recent rise in the use of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals has highlighted the need for a better understanding of the consequences of extravasation and different treatment approaches, which are summarized in this systematic review" Gebruers et al (2025).
"This validated nomogram integrates patient, catheter, and biomarker-specific factors to individualize PICC-CRBSI risk stratification in hematologic malignancies, potentially guiding targeted prevention strategies" Guo et al (2025).
"The collective body of evidence supports the widespread adoption of ultrasound-guided peripheral IV cannulation as an evidence-based best practice in modern healthcare" Bruant and Normand (2025).
"Necrotizing soft-tissue infection (NSTI) is a rare yet potentially fatal condition, particularly in pediatric patients. We report the first known case of a previously healthy 1-year and 7-month-old boy who developed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) NSTI following peripheral venous catheter (PVC) insertion" Mao et al (2025).
"PICCs represent a useful and safe frontline central vascular approach for patients with chronic hematologic diseases, with a thrombotic risk profile comparable to that reported with centrally inserted totally implantable venous access devices (TIVADs)" Giordano et al (2025).
