"Prospective observational studies seem to support the possibility of preserving the infected line in case of early pathogen identification and CRBSI management with empirical large-spectrum antibiotics, followed by targeted treatment once the antibiogram is available” Mandolfo et al (2025).
"The Neonatal Vascular Access Group (AVN GdS) of the Italian Society of Neonatology reiterates the use of 2% chlorhexidine in a 70% alcohol solution for skin disinfection before central catheter insertion, as recommended by recent guidelines. However, specific precautions must be taken to avoid complications” D’Andrea et al (2025).
"Compared to traditional ultrasound-guided methods, magnetic navigation offers superior efficiency in pediatric PICC placement, highlighting its promising potential for clinical application and broader implementation” Chen et al (2025).
"We conclude that discontinuing PN and removing CVC at lower enteral feed volumes increases the risk of late-onset sepsis. Although the time to regain birthweight was longer, no differences in anthropometry were noted at discharge. Further evidence is required from low- and middle-income countries” Anne et al (2025).
"Venous access devices can be categorized based on the termination site of the tip of the catheter into central and peripheral access devices. Selecting the type of venous access device depends on various factors, including the condition of the patient, the anticipated duration of therapy, the use of vesicant or hyperosmolar therapies and the potential risk of complications” Abdulelah et al (2025).
"In conclusion, ultrasound could be the standard of care for umbilical catheter placement, ensuring accurate vessel assessment and real-time visualization. Despite our limited sample, our findings highlight its superior precision and safety, reducing complications and the need for radiography” Cossovel et al (2025).
"Our findings suggest that intense immunosuppression in the setting of SOT is not associated with an increased risk of CRBSI in patients with renal failure utilizing TDC especially when a consistent and standardized protocol for the access and care of these catheters is utilized” El Mouhayyar et al (2025).
"We aimed to evaluate the effect of projection mapping (PM) on the quality and safety of central venous catheter (CVC) insertion under real-time ultrasound guidance” Miyazaki et al (2025).
"Infrared vein visualization (IVV) is a known technique commonly used for superficial vein mapping and peripheral venous access. This technical report explores the combined use of IVV and USG for CVC placement” Patankar (2025).
"Utilizing IC-ECG instead of X-ray guidance (CXR or fluoroscopy) for medium and long term CVAD tip location (PICC and port) has resulted in significant cost reduction. This strategy should strongly be considered for improving the cost-effectiveness of CVADs implantation” Pinelli et al (2025).
"Interprofessional CLABSI reduction efforts can be effective in a cardiac surgical intensive care unit and improve patient safety. Keys to success include teamwork, accountability, acceptance from intensive care unit staff, and support from hospital executive leaders” Mazzeffi et al (2025).
"This review highlights a persistent gap between knowledge and adherence to CLABSI prevention practices among ICU nurses. Strengthening education, institutional support, and diagnostic strategies is essential to reduce infection rates and improve patient safety” Alqaissi (2025).
