"Concentrated heparin lock (e.g., 5000 vs. 1000 IU/ml) have been associated with lower requirements for therapeutic CVC thrombolysis but increased systemic bleeding risks and costs. Citrate 4% was non-inferior to standard heparin locks to prevent thrombosis, may cause less bleeding, and is less costly in some countries" Lazarus et al (2025).
"This study aims to compare a commercially available wired and wireless tracker in motion analysis of interventional radiologists performing simulated ultrasound-guided central venous access" Ali et al (2025).
"In this study, the authors found the insertion technique with grooved flashback needle design reduced operative error, double punctures and improved first-attempt success. This flashback needle design could significantly improve patient outcomes, speed time to treatment and reduce hospital costs" Moureau and Kaufman (2025).
"The use of a sterile transparent film dressing reduces tissue infiltration in neonates with peripheral intravenous catheters. It is recommended that health care professionals working in neonatal intensive care units use sterile transparent film dressings to dress peripheral intravenous catheters" Çalikuşu Incekar et al (2025).
"In modern clinical settings, medical devices, such as infusion devices used to administer fluids and drugs, carry risks from use errors, requiring a focus on usability and human factors engineering (HFE)" Herrero et al (2025).
"Cetuximab-based therapy is prone to develop skin complications. Our study aims to identify the impact on the central venous access by cetuximab-based therapy in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC)" Huang et al (2025).
"In this study, CVCs coated with green and facile laccase-manganese phosphate hybrid nanostructures [(Mn3(PO4)2·HNSs] prevented bacterial adhesion by 100%, 80%, 60%, and 58% for Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli, respectively" Golroudbari et al (2025).
"In 2022, our pediatric and women's medical center observed a 166.67% increase in central line bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) in the pediatric population. A quality-focused group was initiated to implement changes to reduce CLABSIs" Kovar et al (2025).
"Severe lesions can result from NE extravasation in dogs and cats, leading to euthanasia. Although phentolamine remains the treatment of choice, lesions may heal with alternative supportive measures" Vasquez et al (2025).
"Hypophosphatemia following iron infusion is thought to be a relatively rare complication of intravenous iron infusion, though research is beginning to demonstrate that it occurs more often than previously assumed" Pebdani (2025).
"We quantified the impact that stressors associated with the COVID-19 pandemic had on patient safety, as measured by central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Healthcare Safety Network" Sapiano et al (2025).
"To determine the occurrence and risk factors of contrast media extravasation (CME) during contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT)" Wang et al (2025).
