"The causes, immediate responses, and preventive measures of needle stick injuries were explored. Findings can help develop protocols to lower needle stick injury rates and increase worker safety" Issac et al (2025).
"Gradual pigment reduction was observed throughout the treatment course, with complete resolution of hyperpigmentation achieved two years after the first treatment session. Q-switched Nd:YAG laser therapy at 532 nm is an effective treatment for cutaneous siderosis resulting from iron infusion extravasation" Vitale et al (2025).
"In recent years, the echo-dynamic ultrasound-guided (EDUG) tunneled PICC, a modified technique, has been increasingly adopted in clinical practice. This study aims to compare the safety and efficacy of EDUG-guided tunneled PICC with traditional PICC in cancer patients" Zeng et al (2025).
"This study aims to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided peripheral venous cannulation in adult emergency patients with difficult intravenous access (DIVA)" Yuan et al (2025).
"his network meta-analysis comprehensively compared the accuracy of the currently commonly used venous thromboembolism (VTE) assessment scale for screening peripherally inserted central catheter-associated VTE" Wang et al (2025).
"It was concluded that other catheterization methods (jugular, femoral) are more frequently preferred during anesthesiology residency training. Encouraging trainees to perform subclavian catheterization under ultrasound guidance could be more beneficial in managing critically ill patients during the specialization process" Yalçınkaya et al (2025).
"We conducted a prospective observational study to understand PICC movement in relation to limb position in real time. Neonates admitted to a tertiary neonatal unit, at St George’s Hospital, London, needing point of care ultrasound (POCUS) to confirm optimal PICC position were included" Gronska et al (2025).
"The modified two-stage technique appears to be a feasible alternative to conventional PICC placement and was associated with reduced insertion-related bleeding in ICU patients. The technique also resulted in fewer dressing changes within 24 h, suggesting more stable haemostasis and potential improvements in ICU care quality" Young et al (2025).
"A patient with a history of cystic fibrosis and bilateral lung transplant presented internal jugular port placement for extracorporeal photopheresis in the setting of acute rejection. Imaging demonstrated chronic calcific stenosis of the right brachiocephalic vein and superior vena cava (SVC)" DePalma et al (2025).
"Edema significantly narrows the basilic vein but spares the superficial femoral vein; if further swelling is anticipated, avoid basilic PICC placement and instead use the superficial femoral vein, of which the diameter remains comparatively stable" Tang et al (2025).
"We identified a commercially available 'synbiotic spray', containing Bacillus strains as the likely source of contamination. We advocate for public health warnings regarding using household probiotic cleaning products in environments with immunocompromized individuals" Messiaen et al (2025).
"Clinicians should regularly reassess the need for intravenous access and remove idle PIVCs when appropriate to promote patient safety and comfort" Kennis et al (2025).
