Improving the safety of peripheral intravenous catheters [PDF]

BMJ, 2008
Specialised teams and technology could bring greater benefit than routine replacement Current guidelines from the United Kingdom1 and Australia2 recommend routine replacement of peripheral intravenous catheters every 48-72 hours to prevent painful infusion phlebitis and rare but life threatening peripheral catheter related bacteraemia.

Peak Serum Vancomycin Levels Are Achieved Between 6 and 24 Hours After Implantation of Vancomycin‐Soaked Anterior Cruciate Ligament Grafts

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To examine systemic exposure and elution characteristics of liquid vancomycin‐soaked anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) grafts in vivo by assessing serum vancomycin levels over 48 hours after ACL reconstruction and comparing the resulting concentrations with the toxic threshold of 15 to 20 μg/mL.

Engineered immunostimulatory H2O2‐producing microreactors driven by yeast as localized living cancer therapeutics

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Engineered yeast microreactors that produce H2O2 within tumors enable selective cancer cell killing while releasing immunostimulatory components, effectively suppressing local tumor growth and activating systemic antitumor immunity, with further efficacy enhanced by anti‐PD‐1 therapy and transarterial embolization.

VERMONT μQFR: Diagnostic Accuracy of Murray Law‐Based 2D‐μQFR Compared to 3D‐μQFR and vFFR

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Murray law‐based quantitative flow ratio (μQFR) is an angiography‐derived physiological index that utilizes a single angiographic projection with artificial intelligence‐guided vessel segmentation. Aims To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and time efficacy of 2D‐μQFR against wire‐based fractional flow reserve (FFR ≤ 0.80), compare ...

Coronary Flow in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy—Immediate Effects of Alcohol Septal Ablation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is associated with alterations in coronary microvascular function which have variable pathophysiologic mechanisms, and variable reversibility acutely and chronically following alcohol septal ablation (ASA).

Diagnostic Accuracy and Feasibility of Quantitative Flow Ratio at Low Frame Rate Angiography: The Prospective Multicentre Australian AVALON Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) is a well‐established, non‐hyperemic, angiographic, wire‐free predictor of ischemia when compared to Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy at low frame rates (< 10 frames/second), commonly used in contemporary practice to minimize radiation exposure, has not been evaluated ...
