Abstract
Vascular access devices (VADs) are common and essential in the healthcare setting. However, several factors influence VAD selection and management. Wide variations in VAD practices and the degree of VAD awareness are noted across Asia-Pacific (APAC) countries. An international panel was convened that applied the ASA 2020 method to develop standard criteria for use of VADs in the APAC region. After a literature search, scenarios related to VAD use, care, and maintenance were developed according to the patient population, indication for insertion, and duration of use. These scenarios were rated on a scale of 1-5 (1 being strongly disagreed and 5 strongly agreed) by 11 expert members. A total of 48 clinical scenarios were developed: 23 in hospitalized patients, 3 in critical patients, 4 in cancer settings, 7 pertinent to VAD placement, and 11 for VAD maintenance. The multidisciplinary panel generated several recommendations for the use, care, and management of VADs across general hospitalized patients with or without difficult venous access, critically ill patients, patients with malignancy, patients with different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) with or without dialysis, and in other special populations through evidence-based standards. These recommendations may help in achieving uniformity in practice patterns and improving the quality of VAD care and quality of life of patients in APAC region.

Considerations for Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Apheresis in a Low Body Weight Infant. J Pediatr Hematol Oncol 2022; 44:e816-e818. [PMID: 34966095 DOI: 10.1097/mph.0000000000002380] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2021] [Accepted: 11/03/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) apheresis in infants (<10 kg body weight) requires specific precautions to prevent periprocedural complications. CASE REPORT A 9 month old child was diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma and planned for autologous stem cell transplantation after induction chemotherapy. We illustrate the precautions and technical details observed while performing PBSC collection in this patient. DISCUSSION Use of continuous flow devices, priming of apheresis circuits, appropriate flow rates and continuous monitoring can help to mitigate several procedure related complications. CONCLUSIONS PBSC apheresis in infants (<10 Kg) is safe and feasible with appropriate precautions detailed above.

Abstract
The adequate handling of central venous catheters is a key element in the management of patients with cancer. Catheter-associated deep vein thrombosis is frequently observed in patients with malignant diseases; however, despite being a common complication among these patients, objective information concerning its epidemiology, clinical course, prophylaxis and treatment strategies is very limited. The reported incidence of catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) is highly variable, depending on symptomatic events, or if patients are screened for asymptomatic thrombosis. Several factors have been identified as potential predisposing factors for CRT, both technical and pathological aspects. The anticoagulant of choice is still unclear; while low-molecular-weight heparin is most commonly used, recent studies assessing the role of direct oral anticoagulants in the treatment of CRT show promise as an alternative, but the evidence remains insufficient and the decision must be made on a case-by-case basis.
