"The implementation of a nurse-led VAST improved efficiency and safety of vascular access, demonstrating fewer insertion attempts, longer dwell times, and lower complication rates" Latos (2026).
"The catheter-to-vein ratio (CVR), a key modifiable thrombosis risk factor that primarily influences stasis, lacks a universal definition, causing variability in measurement, thresholds, and clinical use" Ahmed et al (2026).
"Findings suggest that prolonged intervals between flushes may increase risks associated with stagnant IVAP contents. This research highlights the need for further studies to establish safe and evidence-based flush frequencies" Sarver et al (2026).
"We describe two cases of [177Lu]Lu-PSMA extravasation, evaluated using a fully automated, time-resolved dosimetric workflow supporting evidence-based conservative management" Salvadori et al (2026).
"The objective of this research was to evaluate hospital readmissions in patients newly discharged on HPN and to determine the 30-day hospital readmission rate, the mean number of days to hospital readmission, the day of the week of hospital discharge on HPN for readmissions, and the cause of readmission" Ivanov et al (2026).
"We evaluated whether there has been an increase in the placement of an AVF or AVG in the first six months after dialysis initation to offset the increase in patients starting dialysis with a CVC" Allon et al (2026).
"To investigate the current status and influencing factors of PICC/CVC-related central vascular access device-associated skin impairment (CASI) in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT)" Wang et al (2026).
"Clinicians and hospital systems often struggle with the question of whether to place indwelling catheters for long-term antibiotics in persons who inject drugs (PWID)" Green et al (2026).
"Epilepsy after traumatic brain injury can cause unexpected PICC distortion, markedly increasing UEDVT risk. If the catheter is still required and keeps patent, maintaining it in situ with carefully escalated anticoagulation may be a safe management strategy" Chen (2026).
"To investigate the risk factors for primary non-central malposition of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) tip in neonates admitted to the neonatal surgical department, compare the malposition rates across different insertion sites in disease types, and explore whether different diseases affect PICC tip malposition" Mai et al (2026).
"This study aimed to evaluate the change in the position of totally implantable venous access devices in patients with mammary hypertrophy compared to patients without this condition, in both supine and upright positions" Portugal et al (2026).
"To develop an evidence and gap map (EGM) to identify, categorise, and visualise paediatric evidence on interventions aimed at improving CVAD outcomes" Kleidon et al (2026).
