INS standards emphasize that needleless connectors should be disinfected before every access using firm mechanical friction and an appropriate antiseptic, with the exact agent …

Power injectable devices play a critical role in modern imaging, particularly when used with peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC lines) and midline catheters. These …
