"The restraint practices used by Brazilian nursing staff for pediatric care were described based on techniques, reasons, consent, family participation, control of potential harm, and documentation in medical records" Silva and Gaíva (2026).
"Blood cultures obtained from the CVC hub during insertion were associated with an increased risk of contamination. These cultures should be interpreted with caution, and alternative sampling sites may be preferable when feasible" Aonuma et al (2026).
"A short cut review of the literature was carried out to determine long-term outcomes of IO access in paediatric patients requiring emergency vascular access" Carley and Yates (2026).
"This study explored how nurses facilitated the implementation of an updated evidence-based PIVC insertion protocol through the lens of the integrated Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (i-PARIHS) framework" Algamdi and Al-Moteri (2026).
"We present a rare case of superior vena cava (SVC) perforation during tunneled dialysis catheter (PermCath) insertion in a patient with chronic renal failure. The injury led to mediastinal hematoma, bilateral hemothoraces, and hemorrhagic shock, requiring emergency thoracotomy and surgical repair" Najam et al (2026).
"Prophylactic use of apixaban or rivaroxaban significantly reduces catheter-associated thrombosis and prolongs catheter survival compared with placebo, without an increased risk of bleeding" Soliman et al (2026).
"Our study demonstrates that the use of AI n-PICCs was associated with a reduction in the rate of infection development in premature infants requiring n-PICC. The use of AI n-PICC may be effective especially in premature infants with a high risk of developing catheter-related infection" Bulbul et al (2026).
"Structural variation in HAI surveillance definitions should be considered when comparing infection indicators, implementing automated surveillance systems, or adapting surveillance frameworks across healthcare settings" Sabbah et al (2026).
"This bibliometric analysis underscores the critical importance of implementing evidence-based infection control bundles and adhering to updated clinical guidelines to prevent and manage CRBSIs" Li et al (2026).
"This study underscores the value of ultrasound-guided MCs in optimising vascular access strategies for critical cardiovascular care" Xu et al (2026).
"This meta-analysis confirms that both thermotherapy and cryotherapy are effective in reducing IV-related pain and fear, with no significant difference between the two approaches" Her et al (2026).
