"This study evaluated the efficacy of daily 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) bathing in reducing HAI incidence, specifically CAUTI, CLABSI, and multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), in a 20-bed ICU at a regional hospital" Chang et al (2025).
"In this meta-analysis, the ΔCaval index test showed higher diagnostic accuracy for fluid responsiveness compared with other venous tests. Caval and jugular indices displayed similar accuracy, and caval indices were consistent under mechanical ventilation and spontaneous breathing. Indices generally outperformed absolute values, except for IVCmin, which equaled the caval index in efficacy." Berikashvili et al (2025).
"Premature infants admitted to the NICU frequently undergo painful procedures with moderate or severe pain intensity. Therefore, it is recommended to use appropriate pain management to increase growth and development, maintain and promote health in infants" Barzegari et al (2024).
"There was no difference in overall complication rates between the implantation techniques. Further prospective randomized controlled trials would clarify the most effective technique" Melo-Pinto et al (2024).
"Enhanced VAT consultation and simplified protocol dissemination may improve consistency in infection management and ultimately lead to better patient outcomes" Colaneri et al (2025).
"Difficult PICC removal can result after prolonged dwell times. When conventional noninvasive interventions are unsuccessful, fluoroscopy-guided guidewire-assisted technique is a safe and effective method for the removal of adherent PICC" Xu et al (2024).
"Hemodialysis vascular access predisposes patients to exit-site infections (ESIs) and bloodstream infections (BSIs), resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. The objective was to characterize hemodialysis catheter-related (CR) ESIs and BSIs while considering potential factors associated with infection" Lawrence et al (2025).
"This study aimed to predict the impact of different infusion strategies on pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) target attainment and the potential risk for toxicity in an ICU cohort treated with β-lactams" Smekal et al (2025).
"This case underscores the importance of careful selection and monitoring of infusion sites during administration of irritant solutions like concentrated KCl, particularly in geriatric patients. Patient-specific factors, pharmacological implications, and the necessity for adequate vascular assessment are emphasized" Li et al (2025).
"This study examines microbial contamination on the surface of reusable tourniquets in both emergency department and operating theatre settings" Szymczyk et al (2025).
"An 82-year-old woman with acute renal failure due to sepsis required emergency dialysis. During the insertion of a 12-Fr dialysis catheter into the right jugular vein, pulsatile reflux was noted. Computed tomography revealed catheter misplacement in the subclavian artery" Takenobu et al (2025).
"Due to its high sensitivity and rapid response characteristics, this study aims to develop a robot system for intravenous infusion based on nanophotonics sensing to realize accurate identification, grasping and opening of medicine bottles in a dynamic environment, so as to improve the safety and efficiency of intravenous infusion" Guochun et al (2025).
