"The unit achieved and sustained >90% compliance with both CHG bathing treatments and K-card door tag processes. The CLABSI rate decreased from 2.15 to 0.41, an 81% reduction" Spinks et al (2025).
"This retrospective review suggests that the use of ultrasound and intracavitary ECG makes the bedside CTB tunneling a safe and minimally invasive procedure" Ostroff (2025).
"Our findings suggested that the terminal tip of silicone MC in the subclavian vein would not increase the incidence of catheter-related complications. Silicone MC was a safe catheter for the low incidence of catheter-related complications and could be popularised in clinical practice" Nie et al (2025).
"Education, leadership, and audit mechanisms improve adherence to CLABSI bundles. Yet, the current evidence lacks randomized controlled trails that can establish effectiveness of these strategies" Bou Hamdan et al (2025).
"Another challenge for the use of vascular point-of-care ultrasound in intensive care is the diagnosis of central venous catheter-related thrombosis. It is a common problem that is often underdiagnosed. Due to the simplicity of the examination and the possible link with nursing care of inserted central venous catheters, this may be another potential diagnostic competency for critical care nurses" Stadlerova et al (2025).
"Our study demonstrates that using OPAT reduces the environmental impact of delivering antimicrobial therapy compared to inpatient treatment. As it is delivered away from the hospital setting, it may also reduce the risks to health associated with inpatient care" Cole et al (2025).
"The long-axis approach for ultrasound-guided CICC in children offers significant advantages in reducing cannulation time and complications" Lee et al (2025).
"IV and IO access routes demonstrated comparable outcomes for survival and neurological function in OHCA. These findings support the flexibility to prioritize the most practical route in emergency settings, particularly when IV access is delayed or challenging" Saad et al (2025).
"The introduction of VR technology into clinical practice can improve the hospital experience for children and reduce anxiety and pain during painful procedures. VR has been shown to be a useful and effective means of distracting children during painful procedures" Gerards et al (2025).
"Right ventricular pseudoaneurysm is a rare and poorly documented condition that can complicate even a routine procedure (eg, central venous line placement)" Kozmek et al (2025).
"CLABSI can be predicted based upon patient and insertion level factors in the electronic health record. In this study, random forest and gradient-boosted models had the highest AUC" Moskowitz et al (2025).
"The purpose of this project was to increase adherence to CLABSI prevention nursing practices and to implement a sustainable program to elevate nurses' skills and documentation of CLABSI prevention bundle components" Brown et al (2025).
