"These findings support the feasibility of image-guided drainage, decompression, and vascular access as candidate strategies for managing acute conditions encountered during exploration missions" Schutt et al (2026).
"This review argues that the biological effect ultimately achieved within the catheter may also be shaped by catheter architecture and lock-handling variables, including tip design, side-hole geometry, true luminal volume, fill ratio, lock density, interdialytic dwell, and aspiration practice" Corrêa et al (2026).
"These findings highlight the potential of machine learning models as effective decision-support tools for CLABSI risk stratification and underscore the need for further validation to facilitate broader clinical application" Zhang et al (2026).
"Implementing a standardized protocol to ensure the appropriate size and placement of PVC, optimizing the dosage and duration of vasopressors, and establishing vigilant nursing monitoring can facilitate the safe administration of vasopressors via PVC, with substantial implications for the early management of shock, particularly in resource-constrained settings" Singh et al (2026).
"Compared with control locking solution, use of 4% t-EDTA locking solution for CVADs reduced the incidence of a composite outcome of CVAD-associated bloodstream infection, catheter occlusion requiring alteplase use, and catheter removal due to occlusion among adult patients in the ICU" Ornowska et al (2026).
"Although national benchmarks recommend contamination rates of less than 3%, the Department of Veterans Affairs sets a more stringent goal of less than 1%. Many emergency departments face challenges in consistently meeting this standard. This project aimed to reduce blood culture contamination through a series of evidence-based interventions" Mikovich et al (2026).
"Although less frequent than central venous catheter infections, PVC-related bloodstream infections represent an important public health concern due to their widespread use. Incidence is likely underestimated because of limited reporting and variable diagnostic criteria" Piuco Preve et al (2026).
"Our findings stress the need for targeted nursing education, structured support for reflective practice, and fostering a ward culture where nurses consistently apply evidence-based practices for PICC dressing and securement" Larsen et al (2026).
"PICCs represent a feasible and minimally invasive option for central venous access in patients with acute leukemia undergoing chemotherapy induction, with a favorable safety profile in terms of CR-bleeding, sDVT, and BSI in our real-world experience" Picardi et al (2026).
"These data highlight the central role of antimicrobial stewardship in OPAT gate keeping and the importance of measuring the unseen and wider healthcare service impact of OPAT" Rimbi et al (2026).
"In patients with CIF and prior CRBSI, 1.35% taurolidine is a clinically superior and cost-saving secondary prevention strategy that reduces recurrent CRBSIs, CVC removals, and hospital resource use" Nerstrøm et al (2026).
