Vascular closure devices (VCDs) and manual compression (MC) are used to achieve hemostasis after peripheral vascular interventions (PVIs). We compared the perioperative outcomes between MC VCD use PVI in a multicenter setting. The Quality Initiative was queried for all lower extremity (LE) PVIs with common femoral artery access performed from 2010 2020. VCDs included were MynxGrip, StarClose SE...

The short peripheral catheter (SPC) is the most common vascular access device used in the health care arena. That use is growing every year with approximately 330 million short peripheral catheters sold in the United States in 2012. The projected growth in the US population, along with an aging population and rising morbidity rates, will contribute to an increased need for vascular access devic...

Intraosseous vascular access is a time-tested procedure which has been incorporated into the 2010 American Heart Association Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation. Intravenous access is often difficult to achieve in shock patients, and central line placement can be time consuming. Intraosseous vascular access, however, can be achieved quickly with minimal disruption of chest compressions...

Over a seven year period from 1982 to 1989,3337 conduits were created in 3137 patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) as access for chronic dialysis. These included 2690 side-to-side arteriovenous fistulae (A VF), 168 end-to-side A VFs, 10 autogenous vein grafts, 51 homogenous frozen vein grafts, 109 polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts, 209 emergency external arteriovenous shunts, t...

BACKGROUND Electronic display devices hold the potential to improve access to written material by people with low vision. For those with central field loss, the optimal form of electronic text presentation may vary according to the location of the preferred retinal locus, but this has never been investigated. In this study, we examined the relationship between preferred retinal locus location a...

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Peripheral Vascular Disease Access Device (PVAD) assessment for prevention phlebitis. The method used is a literature review by searching articles in Scopus, ScienceDirect, CINAHL, Pubmed, Oxford, and SAGE databases. results showed that patient on intravenous therapy helpful patients undergoing therapy. Assessment made during insertion can increas...

The resistance switching behaviour of several materials has recently attracted considerable attention for its application in non-volatile memory (NVM) devices, popularly described as resistive random access memories (RRAMs). RRAM is a type of NVM that uses a material(s) that changes the resistance when a voltage is applied. Resistive switching phenomena have been observed in many oxides: (i) bi...
