Nursing Department, Children's Hospital of Fudan University, National Children's Medical Center, Shanghai, China.
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.

Introduction: The peripheral vascular catheter (PVC) is the most common intravenous medical device used in hospitals, given it is crucial for the delivery of intravenous therapies. Despite its widespread use, PVC complications such as occlusion, infiltration, extravasation, phlebitis, thrombophlebitis, catheter-related thrombosis and catheter-related bloodstream infection significantly affect patient safety, leading to increased morbidity and healthcare costs. One approach to maintain PVC patency and therefore device longevity is to flush the PVC.

Background: ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) demands near-time reperfusion to reduce the risk of long-term heart failure. This study evaluates the proportion of impaired left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) following STEMI in the context of current healthcare settings at a tertiary care center equipped with the most advanced and up-to-date standards of care.
Methods: Patients experiencing STEMI as their first manifestation of coronary artery disease were analyzed, as these individuals had no prior experience with heart-related chest pain.
Effect of a Training System Utilizing 3D-Printed Patient-Specific Vascular Models on Endovascular Catheterization Performance.

Department of Diagnostic Imaging, Faculty of Medicine, Hokkaido University, N-15, W-7, Kita-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido 060-8638, Japan; Global Center for Biomedical Science and Engineering, Faculty of Medicine, Hokkaido University, N-14, W-5, Kita-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido 060-8648, Japan.
This study aimed to examine the effect of simulation training using a three-dimensional (3D)-printed patient-specific vascular model on the advanced vascular catheterization skills of experienced interventional radiologists (IRs). Two specific anatomic types of 3D-printed patient-specific models from two patients with challenging celiac axis arterial anatomy were constructed. The Global Rating Scale of Endovascular Performance (GRS-EP) was used to evaluate vascular insertion skills.

Biomagnetic fluid dynamics (BFD) is an emerging and promising field within fluid mechanics, focusing on the dynamics of bio-fluids like blood in the presence of magnetic fields. This research is crucial in the medical arena for applications such as medication delivery, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, prevention of excessive bleeding, and treatment of malignant tumors using magnetic particles. This study delves into the intricacies of blood flow induced by cilia, carrying trihybrid nanoparticles (gold, copper, and titania), within a catheterized arterial annulus under a robust magnetic field.
