"This manuscript examines the use of respiratory therapists (RTs) to perform central venous and arterial line placements to address the lack of available staff to perform these procedures" McClay et al (2025).
"The incidence of CPK elevation was similar previously reported rates. This expands the literature to patients with daptomycin doses>6 mg/kg and prolonged durations of therapy. The incidence of CPK elevation and time to onset of 9-16 days supports the current recommendations for weekly lab monitoring" Wiley et al (2025).
"This report describes a case of inadvertent subclavian artery catheterization that was successfully managed with the ExoSeal vascular closure device" Wang et al (2025).
"To mitigate the elevated risk of complications (e.g., air embolism) arising from delayed response to infusion endpoints, this paper designs a flexible double pole capacitive (FPB) sensor, which includes a main pole plate, an adaptive pole plate, and a back shielding electrode" He et al (2025).
"This study supports nurse-led device development in advancing engineering-based strategies to reduce occupational exposure and improve injection safety. Findings may inform future implementation of medication preparation systems to mitigate healthcare-associated infections in practice" Liu et al (2025).
"The needle length required to reach the average sonographic midpoint of the IJ vein is approximately 1.48 cm with a range of 0.8 to 2.7 cm. As ultrasound does not intrinsically prevent needle over insertion, proceduralists, particularly less experienced operators, need to be mindful of needle depth to reduce complications from excessive needle tip penetration" Olayode et al (2025).
"This study aims to identify and assess the risk of injuries caused by needles and sharps among healthcare personnel in a tertiary care hospital in Pune, by application of healthcare failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA) tool" Joshi et al (2025).
"This review article presents a framework aimed to standardize POCUS practice across a health care system, thereby enhancing both diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes" Romero et al (2025).
"Adherence to these recommendations significantly decreases the risk and mitigates the consequences of extravasation. Clinical sites may adapt and expand these guidelines based on local policies and specific patient care requirements" Vokurka et al (2025).
"Vascular access devices, including peripheral intravenous catheters, are widely utilized for intravenous therapy in hospitals; however, they are associated with risks and complications. Nearly 50% of these catheters are removed in an unplanned manner, which exacerbates the problem of catheter-associated bloodstream infections, leading to serious consequences such as increased mortality and higher hospital costs" Rodríguez-Calero et al (2025).
"To evaluate the efficacy of 75% alcohol wet compression as a noninvasive treatment for contrast medium extravasation (CMEX) during contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT)" Wen et al (2025).
"The recently updated AORN "Guideline for sharps safety" provides perioperative team members with information on identifying potential sharps hazards and interventions to prevent sharps injuries" Speth (2025).
