Central Venous Catheterization for Parenteral Nutrition
To define the risks associated with central venous catheterization for total parenteral nutrition (TPN) 3291 patient days of this therapy, delivered by an established nutrition support team, were evaluated. One hundred and seventy-five catheters placed in 104 patients were reviewed over an 18 month period. Positive cultures were reported on 11 cannulae

Complications of central venous catheterization
For two years we have performed 250 central catheterizations veins (subclavian - 187, femoral - 63) in 202 patients. In 26 of them, catheterization was performed twice, and in 11 - three times. The duration of the stay of the catheter in the vein ranged from several hours to 46 days, on average 5-7 days.

ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Same‐Day Discharge After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Who, When, and How?
ABSTRACT The burden of severe aortic stenosis requiring treatment is growing due to ageing populations. This places increased demands on health resources due to the growing number of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures and hospital bed occupancy.
