"When comparing the rate of early discontinuation between daptomycin and vancomycin in OPAT, there was no significant difference between groups. These findings suggest that either agent may be considered in the OPAT setting depending on patient-specific factors" Lanier et al (2025).
"There are associated adverse effects with intravenous (IV) vancomycin, yet there is a paucity of published literature surveying the appropriateness of use. The objective of the study was to assess the appropriateness of IV vancomycin prescriptions at a Canadian acute care hospital" Glassman et al (2025).
"Given the complexity of administration, limited stability data, and cost of these regimens, completing a 6-week course of therapy at home is challenging for both patients and OPAT programmes" White and Siegrist (2025).
"Elastomeric devices (EDs) allow infusion of antibiotic via an intravenous catheter over 24 hours, supporting outpatient parenteral antimicrobial therapy. We conducted a systematic review of these devices in a paediatric population" Shipman et al (2025).
"The use of this innovative device, in conjunction with an established evidence-based care bundle, was associated with low complication and contamination rates, and no cases of CRBSIs" Ruiz-Merlo et al (2025).
"The report highlights the role of POCUS in the prompt identification and treatment of hemodynamic deteriorations and posits potential utilization of POCUS as a tool in preventative surveillance" Guzman et al (2025).
"The present study aims to describe the morphometric relationship of the subclavian vein and artery to the clavicle and their angular orientation, with a particular focus on improving the safety of interventional procedures by bringing new anatomical landmarks" Muñoz-Leija et al (2025).
"The most frequent route of drug self-administration in preclinical animal models is the intravenous route via indwelling intravenous catheters. The present study examined 23 years of drug self-administration studies in Old World macaques used in drug self-administration studies at Wake Forest University School of Medicine" Lewis et al (2025).
New publication on Ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous catheter placement locations: A retrospective study of 29,436 cases from the Journal of Vascular Access Ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous catheter…
"Therapeutic play administered before CVC procedures effectively reduced children's fear and anxiety, supporting its use by nurses to enhance psychological comfort and preparation for invasive procedures, particularly in hematology-oncology settings" Taşpinar et al (2025).
"With no observed instances of infiltration, extravasation, or other related complications, peripheral administration of vasopressin initiated in the ED for select, hemodynamically compromised patients may represent a feasible approach to initiate early vasopressor therapy while allowing clinicians to more carefully weigh the risks and benefits of CVC placement" McCurry et al (2025).
"The DIVA-SP is useful, valid and reliable for application in Spain. Furthermore, it exhibits better psychometric properties than the original version for identifying difficult intravenous access in pediatric patients" de la Vieja-Soriano et al (2025).
