"We have demonstrated that drug monitoring is practicable in the OPAT setting of a large institution with no on-site analytical capability. Current dosage regimens result in acceptable PK-PD target attainment. Our findings provide an initial step towards supporting TDM in OPAT" Wilson et al (2026).
"Pain during venous cannulation as a predictor of acute pain after surgery was significant in univariate regression, but the results were lost when adjusting for confounders like gender and current pain" Persson et al (2026).
"Conventional lead placement was impossible due to failed guide-wire advancement bilaterally. Peri-procedural venography demonstrated attenuation of both brachiocephalic veins and contrast-enhanced computed tomography confirmed complete central venous occlusion (CVO)" Baudry et al (2026).
"Our findings indicate a possible benefit of even brief simulator exposure for skill acquisition for complex endovascular procedures such as MTE. While conventional training may suffice for basic skills, simulation may be particularly helpful in supporting learning in more advanced tasks" von Hessling et al (2026).
"To our knowledge, port implantation in nonhospital settings has not been reported in peer-reviewed literature. Here, we report our experience with port placement in freestanding outpatient vascular centers” Gray et al (2026).
"Routine PVC removal at set time intervals may prevent bloodstream infection and thrombophlebitis; however, it requires additional replacement PVC insertions and costs. An alternative is clinically indicated removal when the PVC is no longer needed, functional, comfortable or complication-free” Charles et al (2026).
"This case highlights the importance of routinely checking for pinch-off syndrome whenever a central catheter is placed, and it suggests that removal of migrated catheter fragments may not be necessary in asymptomatic patients” El Graini et al (2026).
"In a simulated environment, the novel insertion system reduced total procedure time and procedural challenges, particularly guidewire kinking, which may aid in prevention of guidewire complications when compared with a traditional ACVC” Wimmer et al (2025).
"The study aims to identify a relatively low-risk locking frequency for catheter dysfunction, evaluate its effects on maintaining catheter patency and preventing catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI), and determine the optimal locking strategy that balances infection risk and catheter functionality” Zhang et al (2026).
New publication on Variations in pain induced by venous cannulation on repeated time-points: An observational cohort study from the Journal of Vascular Access Variations in…
"Massage shortened the peripheral intravenous catheter insertion process and positively affected the patients' anxiety of and satisfaction with the procedure" Eren and Karacan (2026).
"Long-term central venous catheters removal is often complicated by peri catheter adhesions and calcification. Owing to the risk of significant complications, removal should be performed only when clinically indicated and preferably in specialized centers with access to interventional radiology and cardiac surgery" Bawazir et al (2026).
