"When inserted using modern protocols and technologies, FICCs offer a safe and effective alternative for oncology patients without viable upper-body venous access" Parejo Arrondo et al (2025).
"The risk prediction models for PICC-CLABSI demonstrated strong predictive performance. Future research should carefully address all elements of PROBAST framework during study design phase" Cao et al (2025).
"Pharmacist-led PICCs validation improves patient safety and optimises device use, demonstrating its value and sustainability in clinical practice" Tournayre et al (2025).
"CLABSI can be diagnosed by differential time to positivity (DTP), where central venous line (CVL) blood cultures grow 120 minutes faster than peripheral cultures drawn at the same time. Peripheral cultures cause patient discomfort, risk contamination with skin flora, may cause delays in clinical care, and the overall impact is uncertain. We investigated our institution's paired blood culture practice to assess the utility and clinical impact of peripheral cultures" Prudowsky et al (2025).
"We aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the efficacy of Cyanoacrylate Glue (CG) use in preventing IV complications at the Emergency Department" Sciorilli et al (2025).
"Complications are grouped into incision-, catheter-, and reservoir-related categories. Incision complications include adhesive dermatitis, suture pseudoinfection, wound dehiscence, and erosion. Catheter issues include arrhythmias, central venous stenosis, fracture, fibrin sheath formation, thrombosis, and migration, each with distinct clinical implications. Reservoir complications such as port flipping and extravasation may interrupt therapy and cause tissue injury" Schutt et al (2025).
"Tibial intraosseous access has a higher first attempt success rate, is faster, and easier to establish than the peripheral intravenous route" Agarwal et al (2025).
"To compare arteriovenous fistula (AVF) maturation in soft handball exercise (Group I) versus no exercise (Group II)" Gupta et al (2025).
"The purpose of this study was to assess whether a line guard, a transparent line-to-line barrier against gross contamination, was effective in contributing to the reduction of pediatric CLABSIs" Lulgjuraj et al (2025).
"This article discusses the implementation of a 24-hour VAT, the barriers and outcomes, and many positive benefits of specialized vascular nurses in a rural community hospital" Jungck et al (2025).
"The pilot of the assessment and program found successful identification of patients at risk for VAD misuse, and interventions were put in place to decrease risk to the patient and hospital" Eastridge et al (2025).
"We aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the microbiological, pharmacological, and clinical profile of temocillin"
