Background and aims: Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is typically delivered through
catheters inserted into the superior vena cava (SVC) via a subclavian or internal jugular vein …

Central venous catheters for total parenteral nutrition (TPN) have traditionally been inserted
via direct cannulation of the subclavian vein, but this technique requires physician …

Background & aims Peripherally inserted central venous catheters (PICC) have become
increasingly popular for medium to long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) but there is limited …

Background: Central venous access is crucial for the provision of adequate parenteral
nutrition (PN). The type of central venous access device (CVAD) has evolved over the past …

This study evaluated the safety of triple vs single‐lumen catheters in intravenous nutrition.
Patients who were judged likely to benefit from a triple‐lumen catheter were randomized to …

Background: The establishment of reliable central venous access is essential in the
management of patients with major complications, including pneumothorax and …

Enteral nutrition (EN) and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) may provide life‐sustaining therapy
for surgical patients. The duration of nutritional therapy (enteral or parenteral) implies distinct …

Background: Intravascular catheters are integral to the practice of modern medicine.
Potential risk factors for catheter‐related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) include underlying …

Rationale: The purpose of this study is to report the frequency of central venous catheter
(CVC) complications and to analyze the potential risk factors for complications requiring …

OBJECTIVE: Few data are currently reported on home parenteral nutrition (HPN) patient
outcomes, which makes evaluating comparative outcomes in HPN difficult. This study …
