is a common cause of implant-associated infections, and this is related to its ability to form biofilms. Strain-to-strain variability in biofilm formation is likely caused by genetic differences. Here, we present a draft genome of AUH4567, which was isolated from a central venous catheter infection.

Background: People undergoing major orthopaedic surgery are at increased risk of postoperative thromboembolic events. Low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) are recommended for thromboprophylaxis in this population. New oral anticoagulants, including direct factor Xa inhibitors, are recommended as alternatives.

One-lung ventilation is commonly used in lateral open chest surgery; however, it can increase pulmonary vascular resistance, which negatively affects Fontan circulation. Nevertheless, one-lung ventilation has a positive indication in post-Fontan patients. It allows surgery with lateral minimally invasive thoracotomy, which does not require a median sternotomy.

Background: In general, it is relatively easy to remove peripherally inserted central venous catheter (PICC) by gentle traction without any complications. However, the removal of PICC can be challenging occasionally. If the standard interventions fail to remove the catheter, there are no clear recommendations about what to do.

Timely and effective rescue of critically ill children no longer solely relies on advanced medical technology; vascular access plays a pivotal role. Best practice recommendations for nursing in vascular access are critical for ICU patients. However, clear guidelines for the maintenance of external infusion connection devices remain lacking.

Background And Objective: The aim of this retrospective observational case-control study was to examine the significance of different renal Doppler marker variations within the initial 24-hour period as potential predictors of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in patients with sepsis.

Methods: A total of 198 sepsis patients were enrolled and categorized into two groups: the AKI group (n = 136) and the non-AKI group (n = 62). Three renal Doppler indices, Renal Resistive Index (RRI), Power Doppler Ultrasound (PDU) score and Renal Venous Stasis Index (RVSI), were measured within 6h (T0) and at 24h (T1) after ICU admission.
