"utpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy (OPAT) program has become an established clinical practice globally, though its implementation varies across jurisdictions. This review explores the implementation of OPAT within contemporary healthcare systems" Mohammed et al (2025).
"The chest radiograph method could more effectively predict the CAJ position than the surface measurement in the overall cohort. However, subgroup analysis revealed that this advantage was not statistically significant in patients with BMI > 24.9 kg/m2, suggesting reduced efficacy in high-BMI populations" Li et al (2025).
"The current guidelines do not specify how the catheter tip position (axillary vein of the chest wall or subclavian vein) modulates the complication risks. This study investigates the relationship between the tip location, irritant drug properties and vascular injury" Zhao et al (2025).
"Although information on IV iron is widely available online, its overall quality and content are generally poor and not easily accessible to the public. This underscores the opportunity for knowledge translation efforts aimed at developing online resources that are both accurate and understandable" Zhou et al (2025).
"Ultrasound-guided peripheral vascular cannulation appears to be more effective and safer than the conventional technique in infants, particularly in complex or critical care contexts" Casal-Guisande et al (2025).
"The study indicates that nurse anesthetists' knowledge and experience can be utilized in the future selection and insertion of vascular access for patients, as well as in training and education on PICCs" Linqvist Leonardsen et al (2025).
"The rare persistent left superior vena cava with variant azygos vein should not be a contraindication for venous port implantation after a comprehensive evaluation" Zhang and Wu (2025).
"Simplifying home-based antimicrobial regimens may improve OPAT outcomes. Early identification of risk factors for OPAT treatment failure and loss to follow-up can optimize patient management and reduce adverse outcomes" Worsham Behal et al (2025).
"Our analysis shows that the lock solutions studied managed to eradicate intraluminal mature P. aeruginosa in non-tunneled HD catheters under standard conditions. Biofilm inhibition and eradication were observed at low gentamicin concentrations, which could optimize the gentamicin concentration in lock solutions used in HD catheters" Salas-Treviño et al (2025).
"This article discusses the most common complications associated with CVC insertion, nursing assessments for patients with CVCs, and overall nursing management practices" Pezzotti (2025).
"BSIs remain a major issue in patients receiving HD, contributing to prolonged hospitalisations and high mortality rates. HD access-associated BSIs account for a substantial proportion of BSIs and remain a pertinent target for intervention" Bryce et al (2025).
"The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a simple and inexpensive impregnated dressing (intervention) compared to a non-impregnated dressing in reducing catheter-related infections among critically ill patients using vancomycin and chlorhexidine" Lessa et al (2025).
