Background: The number of patients with hip and femoral fractures is increasing and is expected to further increase in upcoming years due to the ageing population and the life expectancy of the general population. In this analysis, we aimed to systematically assess the post-operative complications associated with the pre-operative use of Aspirin in patients undergoing surgery for hip or femoral fracture.
Methods: Common online databases: Google Scholar, Web of Science, MEDLINE, Cochrane database, EMBASE ( www.

This is a prospective observational study designed to develop an echocardiography-guided tip location program for central venous catheter (CVC) implantation, and to assess the feasibility and the accuracy of the program. First, a multidisciplinary expert committee designed an echocardiography-guided tip location program; then, a pilot prospective observational study was conducted to assess the feasibility of the program in a vascular access clinic in a tertiary hospital. A total of 186 patients participated in the study.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the microbiological and clinical heterogeneity of community-onset bloodstream infections (BSIs) and identify features to support targeted empirical antibiotic therapy in the Emergency Department (ED).
Methods: Clinical and microbiological data from 992 BSI cases (1,135 isolates) diagnosed within 24 hours of ED admission at IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, Milan, Italy (January 2015-June 2022), were analyzed. Drug resistance was interpreted using EUCAST-2023.

To increase HHD expansion, current practices and barriers to home dialysis must be examined and addressed. One such barrier is vascular access for HHD; although tunneled hemodialysis central venous catheters (CVCs) have been used for decades, physicians still hesitate to send patients home without a mature, functional arteriovenous access.
