"The results were consistent with other studies, demonstrating drug library compliance ranging from 65% to 80% during the first year of implementation" Narváez-Martínez et al (2026).
Proximal trimming and retrograde tunneling for neonatal central venous access: An atypical over the wire approach from a single center experience from the Journal of…
"In this study, the use of a liquid crystal vein locator was associated with a significantly higher first-attempt success rate, fewer puncture attempts, and reduced procedural times for PIVC in young children" Wu et al (2026).
"High-risk irritants such as caspofungin, ganciclovir, and amiodarone were independently associated with the highest phlebitis risk" Ferraz-Torres et al (2026).
"Initial central venous blood culture sampling before CVC insertion is a simple approach that does not generate additional costs and may reduce contamination while preserving accurate pathogen detection, thereby potentially improving diagnostic certainty and supporting antimicrobial stewardship" Hellenthal et al (2026).
"This series supports the use of routine immediate POCUS for all neonatal PICC lines and consideration of real-time ultrasound-guided PICC placement. Warning signs of intra-arterial placement include abnormal line trajectory on radiographs, insertion site oozing, high pump pressures and limb ischaemia (including contralateral limb involvement)" Douch et al (2026).
"Daily bathing with chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) has demonstrated efficacy in reducing skin colonization by multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), yet compliance remains suboptimal in many settings" Barman et al (2026).
"This study explored how nurses trained in midline catheter insertion describe their emotional experiences during the procedure, and how these emotions emerge as they recount their technical actions and interactions with patients" Guillouët et al (2026).
"The catheter gauge and length are often chosen based on visual estimation. Ultrasound allows for the direct measurement of vessel diameter and depth, which may reduce failed attempts, particularly in patients with difficult access and pediatric patients" Linares and Lopes (2026).
"It is important to have efficient planning for outpatient chemotherapy to optimize the utilization of resources while maintaining the optimal quality of care services" Bazrafshan et al (2026).
"The aim of this study was to identify independent risk factors for CABSIs and to develop and validate a predictive model for CABSIs in patients with midline catheters, centrally inserted central catheters (CICCs), and peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs)" Lafuente-Cabrero et al (2026).
"This quality improvement initiative significantly improved appropriateness and timeliness of antibiotic delivery in children with PIF presenting with suspected CLABSI through multidisciplinary interventions targeting provider awareness, process standardization, and system-level barriers" Meenan et al (2026).
