"For appropriately selected patients requiring admission-level care, ED-initiated OPAT can be a cost-saving substitute for hospitalization. Given limited safety data, benefits remain conditional on rigorous patient selection to avoid overuse and on structured early reassessment to mitigate early revisit risks" Chen et al (2025).
"When 0-1 risk factors are present, PICC insertion is safe even for patients with low platelet counts. If ≥ 2 risk factors exist, the decision to insert a PICC should consider the patient's clinical symptoms and needs. Blood product intervention does not affect the bleeding rate" Zhang et al (2025).
"This review underscores the need for nurses to consistently implement evidence-based interventions to prevent infections related to venous catheters, reduce complications, and improve patient outcomes" Costa et al (2025).
"This study aims to investigate how perceived barriers mediate the relationship between knowledge and self-reported CLABSI prevention practices among ICU nurses" Kim et al (2025).
"Introduction of VR-based training using the Vantari system to train junior anesthesia residents in the placement of a central venous line" Savir et al (2025).
"Rivaroxaban prophylaxis reduces CRT in cancer patients with long term central venous catheters, particularly those with PICCs or active disease" Jia et al (2025).
"If blood cultures had not been collected, the pharmacist manually recorded a prompt in the patient's electronic medical record recommending the collection of two sets of blood cultures" Shibata et al (2025).
"The findings indicate that the Valsalva manoeuvre and breathing exercises are effective non-pharmacological techniques for reducing pain during peripheral intravenous catheterization" Akçoban et al (2025).
"This review aimed to identify the mean cost of CVAD-associated complications in paediatric hospital-based care and explore cost variation based on clinical and health services characteristics" Comber et al (2025).
"For patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma requiring long-term treatment (duration >3 months), PICC-ports may be the preferred option compared to PICCs, particularly for those unable to undergo regular catheter maintenance or prioritizing quality of life" Xiao et al (2025).
"With more consistent availability of US machines across many institutions, their use for PIV placement is becoming commonplace, with several types of clinicians performing the procedure. Novice proceduralists and those in training may encounter technical challenges that may impede successful PIV cannulation" Moustaqim-Barrette et al (2025).
"To evaluate whether our new protocol that uses a saline test injection and a leak detection sensor (LDS) reduces the frequency and amount of contrast media (CM) extravasation during the intravenous CM administration for CT" Matsumoto et al (2025).
