Hui Wang, Man Yuan, Nan Luo & Weiwei Shao􀀍  \nPatients undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection require reliable venous access for perioperative care. Conventional peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) often lead to repeated insertions and complications. This study evaluated the clinical benefits of preoperative mini-midline catheter placement as an alternative. In this quasi-experimental study, 80 patients were allocated to receive either a preoperative mini-midline catheter (intervention group) or conventional PIVCs (control group) . The primary outcomes were preoperative preparation time, number of catheter placements, and incidence of complication-related removals. Patient-reported outcomes regarding procedural pain, anxiety, and satisfaction were also assessed. The intervention group demonstrated a significantly shorter median preoperative preparation time (50.5 min vs. 65 min, P = 0.008) and required fewer catheter placements (median 1 vs. 3, P \u003C 0.001) . In this study, no catheters in the intervention group required removal due to complications, compared to six in the control group (P = 0.034) . Patients receiving mini-midlines also reported significantly lower anxiety (P = 0.002) and higher satisfaction (P = 0.003). Preoperative mini-midline catheter placement streamlines preoperative workflow, reduces catheterization burden and complications, and improves the patient experience. These findings support its integration into standard preoperative care for thoracoscopic lung resection to enhance both clinical efficiency and patient-centered outcomes.  \nKeywords Mini-midline catheter, Thoracoscopic lung resection, Preoperative preparation, Catheter-related complications, Venous access, Perioperative care  \nLung cancer is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and poses a significant global health challenge1.In 2022, approximately 2.48 million new lung cancer cases were reported, representing 12.4% of all global cancer diagnoses. Lung cancer continues to be the leading cause of cancer-related deaths2.For the majority of patients diagnosed at an early stage, surgical resection represents the most effective and primary treatment option3. With advancements in minimally invasive techniques, thoracoscopic radical lung resection has been widely adopted in clinical practice4. This procedure necessitates rapid and substantial fluid replacement during surgery, as well as postoperative anti-inflammatory and nutritional support. Consequently, reliable venous access is indispensable throughout the perioperative period.  \nMoreover, thoracoscopic radical lung resection is renowned for its high efficiency and rapid turnover, which are critical for maximizing operative throughput in busy surgical units5. Reducing preoperative preparation time-such as by streamlining venous access-can further enhance operational efficiency, decrease operating room idle time, and increase daily surgical capacity6. Therefore, optimizing preoperative workflows, including reliable venous access, is essential to support the high-paced nature of thoracoscopic programs7.  \nWhile central venous catheters (CVCs) are firmly established in complex thoracic surgeries for advanced hemodynamic monitoring, high-volume resuscitation, or the administration of vesicant and hyperosmolar agents, their routine use in low-acuity, early-stage thoracoscopic resections may not align with the actual clinical demands. In such settings, peripheral intravenous catheters(PIVCs)are commonly employed8.  \nIn current clinical practice, PIVCs are commonly inserted in the operating room to facilitate intravenous therapy. However, this approach faces significant challenges: preoperative fasting often leads to poor vascular filling, and the fragility of blood vessels in cancer pa","cbCaisjEldwRKaYH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisjEldwRKaYH","pdf",1662733,"English","# Background\n## Need for reliable perioperative venous access\n## Limitations of PIVCs in thoracoscopic surgery\n## Rationale for mini-midline catheters\n# Study results\n## Study design and participant allocation\n## Primary outcomes: preparation time, catheter placements, complications\n## Patient-reported outcomes: pain, anxiety, satisfaction\n# Conclusion\n## Impact on workflow and patient-centered outcomes","[{\"question\":\"What was the study’s main goal when comparing mini-midlines with conventional PIVCs?\",\"answer\":\"To evaluate whether preoperative mini-midline catheter placement improves perioperative workflow and patient experience compared with conventional PIVCs.\"},{\"question\":\"Which outcomes were used as primary endpoints in the quasi-experimental study?\",\"answer\":\"Preoperative preparation time, the number of catheter placements, and the incidence of complication-related catheter removals.\"},{\"question\":\"What patient-reported benefits were observed with preoperative mini-midline placement?\",\"answer\":\"Patients receiving mini-midlines reported significantly lower anxiety and higher satisfaction.\"}]","Use of preoperative placement of mini-midline catheters in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection | PDF",1790653565]
