"The study highlights the ongoing issue of NSIs among HCWs, especially inexperienced interns. While training programs have shown promise in reducing NSI rates, the high incidence of safety devices not being effectively utilized underscores the need for continuous education and hands-on training to enhance safety practices and prevent NSIs in healthcare settings" Wong et al (2025).
"To investigate the applicability, safety, and efficacy of long peripheral catheters in the infusion therapy of lung cancer patients" Liu et al (2025).
"This study reveals no significant differences in the incidence of infections, catheter occlusion, thrombosis, exudation, fibrin sheath, catheter malposition, fracture, pneumothorax, and malfunction between the two implanted venous access ports" Wei et al (2025).
"This study revealed significant variability in CVAD management practices for pediatric cancer care globally, particularly between high-income and middle-income countries" Hyun et al (2025).
"No significant difference was found in overall central venous catheter success rate by practitioner type, but attendings were more successful at subclavian lines, and, on average, approximately 1 minute faster. Patient condition and skill level should be considered when providing trainees with the opportunity to place central venous catheter in hypotensive patients, particularly at the subclavian location" Dumas et al (2025).
"This study investigates the relationship between national catheter use among hemodialysis (HD) patients and kidney transplantation (KTX) activity, exploring the hypothesis that higher KTX activity may be associated with increased catheter usage" Hofmann (2025).
"Midline catheters are an effective solution for patients with difficult vascular access, increase the possibility of intravenous therapy" Cichowlas et al (2025).
"We aimed to determine the frequency and variables associated with low femoral central venous catheter (fCVC) tip position. We also examined the association between tip position and symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE)" Good et al (2025).
"These findings highlight the suboptimal ED PIVC practices that require attention and improvement. Innovative interventions and technology are necessary to address some of these suboptimal practices due to their complexity and persistent challenges, despite previous efforts by clinicians and researchers" Xu et al (2025).
"Plastic cannula use is increasing across Australia, but cost and training barriers still exist. Nevertheless, plastic cannulae remain a viable alternative to metal needles" Smith and Schoch (2025).
"A description of our experience establishing an advanced nursing vascular access programme in a tertiary Children's Hospital in Melbourne Australia" Hsiao and Speekman (2025).
"We define a contaminated BC as the growth of a typical contaminant/skin flora in 1-2/4 BC bottles. We calculate BCC rates as a percentage of the contaminated BC/total BC during the period and BCU rates as the number of BC/1000 patient days (PD)" Saleh et al (2025).
