"This study aimed to (a) assess the patient experience with multiple commercially available CSC devices; (b) determine which laboratory tests are commonly ordered together, which could reduce the need for appointments; and (c) evaluate the analytical performance of these tests using CSC samples" Swartchick et al (2026).
"A real-time, detector-based strategy can identify radiopharmaceutical extravasation during injection, support immediate mitigation, and preserve diagnostic accuracy by allowing early SUV correction" Cucurachi et al (2026).
"These efforts resulted in sustained CLABSI-free performance and reduced avoidable expenses. Disciplined processes support financial stewardship by creating operational reliability and minimizing waste associated with preventable harm" Brown and Williams (2026).
"On the day of surgery, techniques such as pharmacologic anxiolysis, topical anesthetics, vibration devices, and distraction can facilitate patient tolerance of needle-based procedures" McCoy et al (2026).
"Breast cancer patients experienced significantly fewer PICC-port complications and demonstrated excellent device survival. These findings suggest that PICC-ports may be a particularly suitable first-line vascular access option for selected patients with breast cancer" Beaufrère et al (2026).
"The placement of central venous access devices, including peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) and PICC-PORTs, is a routine procedure in oncology care. Usually associated with limited physical pain, these procedures may nevertheless generate significant anxiety and negatively influence the overall procedural experience" Camuccio et al (2026).
"A staged, multimodal intervention was associated with a significant decreasing trend in CLABSI incidence over time, suggesting a potential benefit of comprehensive infection prevention strategies in ICU settings" Chung et al (2026).
"These findings suggest a link between flow dynamics and deposit accumulation, indicating that revisions to nursing guidelines-including standardized insertion, increased flushing volumes, and simulation-based competency training-may help support improved port function and potentially lower complication risks" Fu et al (2026).
New publication on A GAVeCeLT-IVAS bundle for the Safe Insertion of Midline Catheters: The SIMiC protocol from the Journal of Vascular Access A GAVeCeLT-IVAS bundle…
"Downstream occlusion, air-in-line, infusion-complete, and upstream occlusion alarms dominated the 2 years of alarm data, generating the majority of the 5 million IVSP alarms" Nyarko et al (2026).
"Vein assessment via standard visualization/palpation effectively rules out inappropriate sites and should trigger early ultrasound escalation. However, clinically "suitable" veins are frequently suboptimal on ultrasound, supporting broader use of ultrasound to guide initial cannulation decisions" Bahl et al (2026).
"Risk factors for difficult cannulation of the cephalic vein in children remain underexplored. This study aimed to perform an ultrasound-based morphometric assessment of the vein in pediatric patients" Samocki et al (2026).
