PHILADELPHIA – Sixteen people who developed cancer, some of them fatally, and their families have brought suit against German medical device manufacturer B. Braun, alleging that emissions of a carcinogenic gas called ethylene oxide (EtO) from the company’s plant in Hanover Township led to their illnesses.

Peripheral Advantage, which is now available to all hospitals nationwide, addresses a long tolerated, yet unacceptable reality: Although vascular access is the most common invasive procedure, most nurses are not provided with the training, techniques or tools they need to achieve first-stick success. Only 57% or less of nursing students receive any form of Peripheral Intravenous Catheter (PIVC) training. ....
