A reliable, long-lasting venous access represents one of the critical requirements for the success of those treatments. Recent technical innovations-such as minimally invasive procedures for placement, new devices and novel materials-have rapidly spread for clinical use in adult patients, but are still not consistently used in the pediatric population.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;METHODS: &lt;/b&gt;The Supportive Therapy Working Group of Italian Association of Hematology and Oncology (AIEOP) reviewed medical literature focusing on new aspects of central venous access devices (VADs) in pediatric patients affected by oncohematological diseases.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Appropriate recommendations for clinical use in these patients have been discussed and formulated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSIONS: &lt;/b&gt;The importance of the correct choice, management and use of VADs in pediatric oncohematological patients is a necessary prerequisite for an adequate standard of care, also considering the increased chances of cure and the longer life expectancy of those patients with modern therapies.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25362978?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Caselli, Désirée</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Petris, Maria Grazia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rondelli, Roberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carraro, Francesca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Colombini, Antonella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Muggeo, Paola</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ziino, Ottavio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Melchionda, Fraia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Russo, Giovanna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pierani, Paolo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soncini, Elena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DeSantis, Raffaella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zanazzo, Giulio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barone, Angelica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cesaro, Simone</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cellini, Monica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mura, Rossella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Milano, Giuseppe M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Meazza, Cristina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cicalese, Maria P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tropia, Serena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">De Masi, Salvatore</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Castagnola, Elio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aricò, Maurizio</style></author></authors><translated-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Infectious Diseases Working Group of the Associazione Italiana Ematologia Oncologia Pediatrica</style></author></translated-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Single-day trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole prophylaxis for Pneumocystis pneumonia in children with cancer.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Pediatr</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

Current recommended regimens for prophylaxis against PCP range from daily administration to 3 consecutive days per week dosing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;STUDY DESIGN: &lt;/b&gt;A prospective survey of the regimens adopted for the PCP prophylaxis in all patients treated for childhood cancer at pediatric hematology-oncology centers of the Associazione Italiana Ematologia Oncologia Pediatrica.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;The 20 centers participating in the study reported a total of 2466 patients, including 1093 with solid tumor and 1373 with leukemia/lymphoma (or primary immunodeficiency; n = 2). Of these patients, 1371 (55.6%) received the 3-day/week prophylaxis regimen, 406 (16.5%) received the 2-day/week regimen, and 689 (27.9%), including 439 with leukemia/lymphoma, received the 1-day/week regimen. Overall, only 2 cases of PCP (0.08%) were reported, both in the 2-day/week group. By intention to treat, the cumulative incidence of PCP at 3 years was 0.09% overall (95% CI, 0.00-0.40%) and 0.51% for the 2-day/week group (95% CI, 0.10%-2.00%). Remarkably, both patients who failed had withdrawn from prophylaxis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;A single-day course of prophylaxis with trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole may be sufficient to prevent PCP in children with cancer undergoing intensive chemotherapy regimens. This simplified strategy might have implications for the emerging need for PCP prophylaxis in other patients subjected to the increased use of biological and nonbiological agents that induce higher levels of immune suppression, such as those with rheumatic diseases.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24252793?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
