Moving the needle forward: the imperative for collaboration in vascular access.
The authors discussed vascular access patterns of use, complications, and outcomes. They recognized a need to create a better intersection between research evidence and clinical practice. They concluded that bedside and vascular access nurses, nurse researchers, and physician-scientists must partner in a way that generates shared questions, promotes transparency of the research process, and generates mutually beneficial products.
