"The purpose of this study was to determine if intravenous (IV) admixture lab course activities improved students' confidence and comfort levels in compounding sterile preparations across campuses and terms” Mueller et al (2025).
"Daily chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) bathing may reduce central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) in critically ill patients, but evidence remains inconclusive, particularly regarding long-term effects and varying frequencies of use” Lin et al (2025).
"To address CRBSI, one must know the causative microorganisms and their antimicrobial susceptibility profiles. This study aimed to identify the microbes that cause CRBSI and their antimicrobial susceptibility patterns” Poddar et al (2025).
"Anatomical variations, such as the persistent median artery, can complicate radial artery catheterization and are not easily identified through pulse palpation alone. The use of vascular visualization devices is recommended to identify and navigate such variations, ensuring accurate catheter placement” Nakamura et al (2025).
"The main clinical outcomes reported were mortality, infectious complications, length of stay (LOS) and duration of mechanical ventilation (DoMV). Mortality, LOS and rates of urinary tract and central-line associated bloodstream infections did not seem to be affected, positively or negatively, by interventions structuring BWRs” Ando et al (2025).
"This article aims to prepare GPs, general practice registrars and other health providers with the knowledge to confidently and safely perform ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) infusions” Patel et al (2025).
"In this report, we describe a rare abdominal wall complication of PICC placement through the saphenous vein in an extreme preterm, manifested clinically by hypoglycemia and a seemingly abdominal wall abscess” Mouhssine et al (2025).
"Point Of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) guided peripheral intravenous (PIV) access offers a safer and more efficient alternative for patients with difficult venous access” Zaki et al (2025).
"Many central lines were removed despite infrequent formal CLABSI diagnoses. Thorough assessments for alternative sources and use of non-invasive diagnostics including repeat blood cultures prior to line removal, may allow increased appropriate retention of lines” Thorburn et al (2025).
"Overall, this study found that patients trained using Standard-ANTT took significantly less time to become independent with HPS than those using traditional sterile/aseptic techniques. A lower risk of CRBSI was observed in the Standard-ANTT group. Adopting Standard-ANTT in training patients who require HPS is safe and effective” Malhi et al (2025).
"This study aimed to assess the knowledge of intravenous therapy among nursing students. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 170 diploma nursing students randomly selected from a private university in Malaysia between November 30 and December 30, 2023" Che Seman et al (2025).
"This study aims to compare the decontamination efficacy of 75% ethanol and 2% CHG in ethanol with scrub durations of 5, 10, and 15 seconds on NCs in outpatients" Wu et al (2025).
