Long peripheral cannula in COVID-19 patients

“The ultrasound-guided implantation of an 18G LPC in COVID19 patients, regardless of the state of their venous heritage, would seem to be an excellent strategy for these patients, reducing the number of venipunctures and CVC implantation, as well as allowing multiple and high pressure (contrast) infusions” Gilardi et al (2022).

“The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of topical lidocaine spray 10% on the response to placement of venous catheters in dogs” Hoeberg et al (2022).
What fuels poor peripheral IV care – Full Text

“The clinical management of PIVCs appear ambiguous, unclear, and fragmented, with no clear professional responsibility and no nurse leadership, causing a gap in preventing infections” Blanco-Mavillard et al (2022).
Confirming Peripheral IV placement in children

“Precordial Doppler ultrasound was a feasible and accurate technique for confirming correct PIV access in children with CHD” Hirayama et al (2022).
