Peripheral arterial catheter insertion is a common procedure for critically ill patients requiring frequent blood gas sampling and continuous pressure monitoring. There are clear advantages of ultrasound-guided cannulation, which have shown to be more effective in reducing complications, time successful number attempts, overall first-time success rates. Evidence suggests that using palpation alone has rate less than 70% yet still widely performed technique. A systematic evaluation may...

Bilirubin-induced neurologic dysfunction (BIND) is the constellation of sequelae following milder degrees neonatal hyperbilirubinemia than are associated with kernicterus. Clinically, BIND may manifest after period as developmental delay, cognitive impairment, disordered executive function, and behavioral psychiatric disorders. However, there controversy regarding relative contribution versus other risk factors to development later neurodevelopmental disorders in children BIND. In this...

In today's health care landscape, vascular access teams (VATs) are often tapped to increase appropriate device utility or independently seek ways insert various central venous devices (CVADs) not limited peripherally inserted catheters (PICCs). This includes all models of VAT (APRN, NPs, RN, RT, RRT) seeking provide a dedicated resource when PICC is for the patient. especially important an alternative CVAD indicated based on medication characteristics, duration therapies, anatomical...
