"PICC-port implementation achieved excellent safety outcomes comparable to international benchmarks, supporting its use as an alternative to chest ports in resource-constrained settings" Watts-Pajaro et al (2026).
"Current evidence for reducing anxiety during preoperative PIV insertion is limited and low in certainty. Lavender aromatherapy appears promising, but conclusions regarding its effectiveness should be considered preliminary" Majumdar et al (2026).
"Midline catheters (MC) are 10-20 cm intravenous (IV) lines inserted in the peripheral veins of the upper arm and utilized for patients who require longer term IV access, making them advantageous in the intensive care unit (ICU)" King et al (2026).
"Based on the available evidence, we provide practical recommendations for adverse events diagnosis, risk mitigation, patient counselling, and formulation selection to optimise the safe and effective use of i.v. iron for treatment and prevention of anaemia in routine clinical practice" Saal-Bauernschubert et al (2026).
"To test whether a first dressing change at seven days is non-inferior to an additional change at 24 h, we conducted a multicenter randomized controlled non-inferiority trial in four Chinese pediatric ICUs (April 2021-December 2022)" Wang et al (2026).
"CVAD-associated complications remain a palpable cost in paediatric cancer care, with CLABSI carrying the highest cost burden. Therefore, investing in preventative care is encouraged to minimise the burden of complication costs to the healthcare system, and reduce the physical and emotional burden on patients and their families" Comber et al (2026).
"Given the mirror-image anatomy, the anatomically relocated left internal jugular vein should be preferentially selected for totally implantable venous access port placement because of its more favorable anatomical course compared with the right internal jugular vein" Shao et al (2026).
"Knowing the VIP stage is also important because it can reflect the quality of care delivered. A patient whose cannula site is recognised at VIP score 2 and promptly managed is more likely to have received regular inspection and appropriate intervention than a patient whose site progresses to VIP score 4 before action is taken. In this sense, the stage at which phlebitis is identified can act as a marker of how effectively staff are monitoring and responding to peripheral intravenous cannulas" IVTEAM (2026).
"The framework is demonstrated in vivo at the antecubital fossa beneath a PIVC dressing, where region based effective strain analysis reveals a clear mechanical hierarchy at the skin-device interface, with strain concentrating in the peri-insertion tissue at the dressing margin" Surlis et al (2026).
"We report a 67-year-old man undergoing modified radical neck dissection in whom the abrupt cessation of infusion revealed a fracture of an 18-gauge PIVC placed on the dorsum of the hand. Ultrasonography confirmed retained intravascular fragments" Baytar et al (2026).
"We reported a case of 78-year-old patient, whose PICC was found kinked. After the adjustment, the blood flowed smoothly again. On the next day, catheter was found to be occluded and Color Doppler Flow Imaging (CDFI) shown that it occurred multiple deep vein thrombosis" Zhang and Feng (2026).
