Because prompt surgical repositioning was required, conscious sedation and real-time transesophageal echocardiography were utilized to provide precise guidance" Amaya-Zúñiga et al (2026).
"Cyanoacrylate glue represents a safe and effective strategy for stabilising SPCs in neonates. Glue-based securement is associated with a substantially lower incidence of phlebitis and, when combined with splinting, may further reduce the risk of dislodgement" van Rens et al (2026).
"Preparation using Chemfort™ CSTDs was associated with reduced microbial contamination and shorter preparation times compared with needle-based methods" Knowles and Jenkins (2026).
"We report a rare case of a retained tunneled dialysis catheter presenting with no visible external catheter and a completely healed exit site" Ostroff et al (2026).

"In this retrospective cohort, Type 3 and Type 5 UVC tip positions were associated with an increased frequency of PVT. These findings highlight the importance of careful catheter placement and imaging-based verification" Karayazili et al (2026).
"A structured AMS intervention for UTIs in OPAT improved appropriate antibiotic duration, increased IV-to-oral switching, and reduced healthcare costs without compromising clinical safety. Behavior-informed stewardship strategies can optimize antimicrobial use in OPAT care" Gómez-Zorrilla et al (2026).
