Checklist contributes to CLABSI reduction plan
"A questionnaire to assess patients' risk of CLABSI-POA was developed based on four criteria. If any criteria were positive, two sets of blood cultures were obtained" Glauser et al (2026).

"Over 65 million alarms were analyzed. Infusions of antibacterials generated a higher percentage of "Door Open" and "Bolus Air in Line" alarms than were generated in the all-infusion sample" Armistead et al (2026).
"These cases illustrate that guidewire retention, albeit rare, can occur during arterial cannulation by the Seldinger technique and shares the same human-factor vulnerabilities long recognized in central venous access-related guidewire retention, including distraction, incomplete preparation and loss of wire control" da Silva et al (2026).
"Pediatric TIVA is moving toward greater precision, safety, and sustainability. Moderate effect-site targets, opioid titration, and early down-titration remain central, particularly in neonates. Propofol infusion syndrome is exceedingly rare, and organ-protective effects of TIVA are reported in major surgery" Quintão et al (2026).
"We defined clinical characteristics associated with children who had clinically significant BSI. These data should be considered when developing guidance for which children warrant blood culture collection for BSI evaluation. The majority of BSIs are identified within 36 hours of collection" Patel et al (2026).
"Our findings revealed no significant difference in the CVP values between the proximal and distal lumens of the CVC in small pediatric patients; moreover, the proximal lumen provided reliable CVP values, even during CPB" Yamamoto et al (2026).
"The online staff training package for PN was well received with staff finding it engaging, informative and practical. Course completion led to intended positive behaviour changes in clinical practice reported by participants, particularly regarding infection prevention and Standard-ANTT compliance" Fletcher et al (2026).
"This meta-analysis aims to systematically evaluate the impact of left- vs. right-sided TIVAP implantation on CRT risk, providing evidence-based support for clinical prevention strategies" Fan et al (2026).
"This study demonstrates that sodium bicarbonate locks are a safe and effective alternative to ethanol locks for pediatric patients with IF with equivalent rates of CLABSI and decreased rates of line replacements and repairs" McNevin et al (2026).
"Implementing a flowsheet with alerts to manage patients initiating biologics for IBD that require infusion(s) before switching to SC dosing streamlined workflow, increased visibility, and improved data capture" Fann et al (2026).
"Simulation-based training significantly improved anesthesiology residents' performance in simulated ultrasound-guided pediatric CVC placement. Although not all residents were able to successfully complete the procedure in real patients, the findings suggest a potential transfer of skills acquired through simulation to clinical practice" Bravo et al (2026).
"The value of music (MUS) and virtual reality (VR) in reducing pain or anxiety during central venous port implantation (CVPI) is controversial" Ghimouz et al (2026).
