"Triple-lumen catheters were associated with a higher risk of infection, but their increasing use over time coincided with a decline in infection rates. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and explore the mechanisms underlying demographic and design-related infection risks" Miller et al (2025).
"This perspective review examines the evolving role of neonatal peripherally inserted central catheters (n-PICCs) as a distinct subspecialty within neonatal vascular access. n-PICCs are indispensable for delivering long-term intravenous therapies in critically ill neonates" Van Rens et al (2025).
"Phlebitis was more severe in the cephalothin group and developed more rapidly, necessitating vein changes six times more often than in the cephapirin group. The less irritating properties of cephapirin demonstrated in this study indicate it may be the more useful cephalosporin analogue for intravenous therapy" Lane et al (2025).
"he identification of characteristics of patients who return to the hospital after being discharged on OPAT may identify modifiable steps that can be taken to reduce risk of hospital readmission as a practice improvement strategy" Yousif et al (2025).
"Currently, more than 85% of patients initiating hemodialysis (HD) in the United States utilize a catheter for vascular access. HD is often inseparable from the use of catheters in clinical practice" Chen et al (2025).
"We report a rare case of phlebosclerosis in the left antecubital region after peripheral intravenous chemotherapy, which caused elbow contracture" Ishikawa et al (2025).
"To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study reporting data about sealing of unused lumens of CVCs with taurolidine in critically ill adult patients" Lorente et al (2025).
"Data collected included patient demographics, medical diagnoses, admission details, and PICP characteristics. Observations using the visual infusion phlebitis (VIP) scale were conducted at 96-hr intervals to monitor PICP complications" Priya et al (2025).
"To determine the intensity of biofilm formation on different types of central venous catheters in vitro by clinical isolates of bloodstream infection pathogens in Ukraine" Vodianyk et al (2025).
"[177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE was administered intravenously to outpatients following standard peptide receptor radionuclide therapy protocols. Whole-body planar imaging was performed 3-4 h after injection to confirm administration and assess extravasation, indicated by focal increased uptake at the infusion site" Kayal et al (2025).
"These findings suggest that guidewire exchange of peripherally inserted central catheters and midlines using the Modified Seldinger technique kit is a safe and effective alternative. However, further research is warranted to determine the optimal clinical scenarios for its use" Giustivi et al (2025).
"This study aims to describe the safety, clinical indications and treatment outcomes of the OPAT service in Malaysia, assess patients' satisfaction and experiences and determine the facilitators and barriers associated with the provision of the OPAT service in Malaysia" Lim et al (2025).
