Objective:To investigate the application and management status of midline catheters in 1 954 hospitals, providing a basis for optimizing intravenous therapy nursing practices.Methods:This study used convenience sampling. From November 2023, members of the Intravenous Therapy Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association selected 1 954 hospitals across various regions of China. Questionnaire on the Current Status of Intravenous Therapy in Hospitals at All Levels designed by the committee, based on literature review and expert discussions, was used to collect data on intravenous therapy practices in different hospitals. Multiple response analysis was applied to analysis the results of multiple-choice questions, where response numbers represent the total number of times each option was selected, and response rates refer to the proportion of selected times for each option out of all selected responses.Results:A total of 1 954 questionnaires were distributed across 31 provinces/municipalities/autonomous regions, and 1 954 valid questionnaires were returned, achieving a 100.0% valid response rate. Among the hospitals surveyed, 844 used midline catheters. Regarding the skin disinfection area for midline catheter insertion, the highest response rate was for a range of>20 cm. The highest response rate for catheter insertion techniques was ultrasound-guided Seldinger puncture. The highest response rate for maintenance interval was once a week. The top three responses for nursing documentation related to midline catheters were informed consent for intubation, puncture record, and maintenance record. The most frequently chosen processes were catheter placement, maintenance, removal, and complication management processes. The qualification for midline catheter intravenous therapy specialist nurses was mostly obtained through specialized nurse training, followed by hospital-based and department-based training.Conclusions:The application of midline catheters has rapidly developed but still reveals some deficiencies, including the choice of puncture tools, infection control, and catheter maintenance. It is recommended to improve nursing documentation and management processes related to midline catheters, establish industry standards suitable for China's national conditions, and strengthen and standardize the specialized training of intravenous therapy nurses to promote the healthy development of intravenous therapy in China.

Objective To determine whether local gradient fluid shear stress(FSS)causes a specific distribution of intracellular calcium ion concentration,which ultimately determines the direction of cell migration.Methods Numerical simulations were performed using COMSOL software.The method of staining intracellular calcium ion for RAW264.7 osteoclast precursors was established.After applying gradient FSS on the cells,the distribution and dynamic changes of intracellular calcium ion concentration and cell migration parameters were analyzed.Results Osteoclast precursors tended to migrate towards regions with lower FSS,and oscillatory flow regulated the distribution of intracellular calcium ions along the direction of cell migration.After blocking phospholipase C(PLC),mechanosensitive cation-selective channels(MSCC),endoplasmic reticulum(ER),and removing extracellular calcium,the migration speed of cells towards the low FSS direction was significantly reduced,but the migration speed along the liquid flow direction was significantly enhanced.Meanwhile,the calcium ion distribution along the liquid flow direction was significantly increased.Conclusions Osteoclast precursors can sense the FSS gradient,resulting in a specific distribution of intracellular calcium ions along the direction of migration.This ultimately leads to the migration of osteoclast precursors towards regions with lower FSS.This study provides important basic data for ultimately elucidating the cellular and molecular mechanisms of bone tissue remodeling under dynamic external forces.
