"The purpose of this work was to evaluate for differences in infusion unit nurses' ratings of predictors of difficult intravenous access (DIVA) based on whether they cared for patients with solid tumours versus hematologic malignancies" Alfaro et al (2025).
"This study investigated the effectiveness of a Bluetooth-enabled haptic device (BHD) in reducing pain sensitivity and improving patient satisfaction during needle procedures" Rodriguez et al (2025).
"Limited infusion capacity could impede AD treatment access and result in avoidable disability progression. Expansion of capacity is needed in the short run until treatments with alternative routes of administration become available" Chen et al (2025).
"The aim of this study is to assess the use of centrally and femorally inserted central catheters (CICCs and FICCs, respectively) in French neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and to describe associated clinical practices" Lanel et al (2025).
"During intravenous access, the highest pain assessment scores were reported by children, parents and nurses, respectively. This situation revealed that the perceived pain level differed depending on the assessor" Sezici and Yigit (2025).
"This study compared the safety and efficacy of midline catheters (MCs) and long peripheral catheters (LPCs) in patients who underwent bariatric surgery" Zhao et al (2025).
"Blood cultures (BC) are essential for the diagnosis of bloodstream infections (BSI). BSI can be inaccurately attributed due to BC contamination or bacterial translocation. Reporting BCs after patient death can be inaccurate and potentially increase BSI incidence" Heather et al (2025).
"Sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) significantly contributes to morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients, necessitating an evidence-based approach to fluid management" Nordin et al (2025).

"We hypothesise that a near-infrared light device (AccuVein AV500) could improve the first-attempt success rate of peripheral venous catheter (PVC) placement in intensive care patients no longer requiring a central catheter" Ferrier et al (2025).
"Flushing catheters is one of the most common practices during PIVC maintenance, as it cleans the internal catheter lumen, ensuring patency and reducing the risk of complications" Deng et al (2025).
"IO access was associated with increased prehospital vasopressor administration, suggesting higher success rates of IO vascular access among patients with OHCA in the helicopter emergency medical service setting" Kudo et al (2025).
