"An English-language European guideline for the prevention of complications associated with PIVCs is needed, featuring consensus terminology and a standardized, systematic, and transparent method for grading evidence" Mussa et al (2026).
"Existing risk prediction models for central venous catheter-related complications in children demonstrate potential in terms of discrimination. However, models specifically for CLABSI are limited in number and insufficiently validated" Liu et al (2026).
"Blood culture positivity times differ among Candida species. Early TTP species, such as C. albicans and C. tropicalis, were more likely to be fluconazole-susceptible, suggesting that fluconazole may be an appropriate option for empirical therapy in such infections" Öz et al (2026).
"Each additional catheter-day is independently associated with a 19% increment in CLABSI odds, with an exploratory critical threshold at day 13 beyond which enhanced surveillance measures should be considered, pending external validation" Dalmanoğlu et al (2026).
"ID physicians were commonly involved in OPAT care, with many programs expanding to COpAT. Several barriers to the safe delivery of OPAT remain, including lack of institutional support, reimbursement and poor communication between stakeholders" Castellino et al (2026).
"The preventive measures identified are based primarily on a rigorous pre-injection patient risk assessment and concern access and injection parameters. Many of the risk factors and strategies synthetised in this study are new compared to previous reviews, such as the saline venous line testing and the injection pressure/injection flow ratio" Türke et al (2026).
"This case highlights the risk of delayed vascular erosion associated with suboptimally positioned CVCs, highlighting the diagnostic difficulty posed by TPN extravasation mimicking chylothorax. Prompt recognition of this complication is crucial to prevent adverse outcomes" Jung and Lee (2026).
"In neonates painful procedures are performed with minimum to no regard for pain relief. Even if neonates are unable to communicate pain, it doesn't negate their ability to experience it. This study observed the effect of expressed breast milk (EBM) and 10% dextrose (10%D) during venipuncture in neonates" Baniya et al (2026).
A new publication on Intraoperatory PICC tip detection in azygos vein and immediate correction: The role of intracavitary ECG and echocardiography: A case report from…
"PDSA-based CLABSI bundle implementation was feasible and associated with an early reduction in CLABSI rates; however, system-level and resource constraints limited sustained improvement" Prawira et al (2026).
"Abdominal wall-tunneled femoral PICCs significantly reduce dislodgement risk and prolong indwelling time, providing a stable central venous access for pediatric oncology patients requiring long-term therapy" Yang et al (2026).
"The bundle included a double-lumen noble metal alloy-coated CVC and chlorhexidine-impregnated dressings. This study evaluated whether the bundle was associated with a reduction in catheter-related infections" Lazarevic Lindblad et al (2026).
