"We describe 2 unusual peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) malpositions in the left thymic vein and the right middle thyroid vein, which are, to our knowledge, the first 2 cases of PICC malposition in these 2 veins" Li et al (2025).
"The introduction of propofol changed our understanding of pediatric anesthesia pharmacology, research approaches for intravenous drug study, and led to infusion pump development for the maintenance phase of anesthesia" Anderson and Cortinez (2025).
"Postnatal umbilical cord blood sampling (PCBS), rather than obtaining blood from the neonate, avoids significant neonatal blood loss at a critical time of extrauterine transition and prevents phlebotomy pain in infants without a catheter for blood drawing" Kaufman et al (2025).
"In a cohort of medical students with minimal prior experience in USGIV placement, biplane imaging was not associated with reduction in time to successful USGIV placement, but was associated with a reduction in posterior wall punctures" Thom et al (2025).
"This study explores final-year nursing students' experiences with venepuncture and peripheral intravenous cannulation, focusing on both educational and clinical practice settings" Hernon et al (2025).
"Based on our findings, we recommend providing an NIR vein-finder device and ultrasound training to improve venous access in hospital settings and encourage further research to evaluate their effectiveness" Bennakhi et al (2025).
"We determined the incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infections in adult patients requiring home parenteral nutrition (HPN) while receiving sodium citrate locks" Leong et al (2025).
"Ganciclovir via OPAT is a viable option in patients requiring an extended duration of IV therapy. In our cohort of 18 patients, only one had early discontinuation of therapy due to ganciclovir-related AKI. Close monitoring of labs and an established OPAT protocol can allow for successful completion of therapy" Patel et al (2025).
"We report two cases: one of neonatal hydrothorax with subsequent lung cystic formation after a parenteral nutrition leakage caused by the displacement of an Epicutaneo-Caval Catheter in the basilic vein of the left arm; the second involves a peritoneal collection of parenteral nutrition from the umbilical venous catheter" Coramusi et al (2025).
"There is a marginal loss of growth for every hour a blood culture is left unincubated, with the loss of recovery of Streptococcus pyogenes and other streptococci being most common. There was no evidence of a reduction in Gram-negatives, anaerobes, or yeasts" Deas et al (2025).
