"This study describes a 69-year-old patient with a history of thrombophilia due to MTHRF 677 gene heterozygous mutation, who developed left subclavian vein stenosis two weeks after the use of central vascular access, leading to left upper extremity edema, development of collateral venous network, and pain and dyspnea" González Martínez et al (2025).
"However, costs in the ambulatory setting are poorly quantified. To address this gap, we examined both inpatient costs avoided and uncompensated labor associated with OPAT delivered via 3 administration models: self-administration (S-OPAT), home care agencies/hemodialysis centers (HH-OPAT), and skilled nursing facilities (SNF-OPAT)" Player et al (2025).
"In this quality improvement project, we develop, implement, and maintain compliance with a fluid management strategy. Future work will involve daily utilization of the fluid balance dashboard and monitoring compliance with total IV fluid orders" Hopwood et al (2025).
"This study aimed to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of using various ultrasound techniques to judge the tip positions of central venous catheters and to explore the specific application conditions of various ultrasound techniques" Shen et al (2025).
