"Establishing Vascular Access Teams should be a priority in large hospitals, as they can positively impact ward organization and significantly enhance patient satisfaction" Benvenuti et al (2025).
"The objectives of the present study were to describe central-venous-catheter-related bloodstream infections in patients with SCD and identify risk factors" Holub et al (2025).
"The formula-based estimation of the right internal jugular venous (IJV) catheterization depth can be inaccurate when using ultrasound guidance. External landmark-based and radiological landmark-based methods have been proposed as alternatives to estimate the insertion depth" Samerchua et al (2025).
"This study aims to explore and measure the frequency of intravenous MAEs in EDs and identify factors contributing to these errors during their preparation and administration" Shirlyn et al (2025).
"The centralization of prior authorization services to prevent denials and improve reimbursement measures at 2 community hospital-based infusion clinics is described" Taylor et al (2025).
This document discusses the general aspects of anatomic and US imaging of vessels, US-guided vascular cannulation techniques, and the identification of local vascular cannulation complications. Proper training should impart the cognitive knowledge and technical skills necessary to perform US-guided cannulation. There is an increasing body of literature indicating that US-guided vascular access improves success rates and reduces complications, although the quality of the evidence to date remains weak. A gap remains between the existing evidence and guidelines for the use of US in clinical practice. The availability of US equipment and clinical proficiency will more likely influence the role of US-guided vascular access as a standard of care than will future research studies.
"A mobile-app-based CLABSI prevention program decreased the frequency of inflamed/infected central line insertion sites, improved dressing integrity, increased speed of removal when inflammation/infection were found, and reduced infection-related hospitalization risk" Singh et al (2025).
"The ICU nurses' CVC maintenance KAP questionnaire has good reliability and validity, stable results, comprehensive coverage, and high feasibility. It can be used as a measurement tool to evaluate the maintenance level of CVC for ICU nurses in China" Cheng et al (2025).
"The cost incurred for port implantations by medical oncologists was lower (994.38 € cheaper for each device) compared to those implanted by vascular radiologists. Our experience suggests that implantation of port devices by medical oncologist in a non-surgical environment is safe and cost saving regarding conventional procedures" Revuelta et al (2025).
"Implantable port catheters (IPCs) and peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are commonly used venous access methods for chemotherapy in cancer patients. However, the question of which is superior remains controversial" Qiu et al (2025).
"The patients' experience with iVR was positive and enhanced their experience of receiving antineoplastic infusion therapy, with minimal cybersickness" Burrai et al (2025).
"Constructing a risk prediction model for DIVA in adult patients has significant predictive value. It assists medical staff in early intervention and management for high-risk patients, thereby achieving effective prediction, warning, and control" Ji et al (2025).
