The AVA Board has been busy, and I have a number of things to update you on so I will dig right in.First of all, in my last message I shared that we had selected Talley Management Group (TMG) to provide association management services for AVA. The effective date for their contract was March 1, 2023. Brent Schwartz is serving as our Executive Director, and Tonya Hutchison, Judy Thompson, and Blake Hotchkiss are continuing in their roles, now as TMG employees. There is a robust team of folks at TMG who are providing services for membership, creative services, and finance. Though the relationship is new, the transition is going well. There is a bit of a learning curve for TMG staff, but they are quite experienced in association management and bring a lot of knowledge to the table. I want to give a shout out to Tonya, Judy, and Blake for their work to make the transition go smoothly and want to thank Brent and the team at Talley as well. AVA remains dedicated to our mission: To advance the global practice of vascular access, through awareness, advocacy, and education to improve health care outcomes.Are you excited about the upcoming AVA Scientific Meeting in Portland, Oregon? I know that I am. The D-team, led by Kacey Wiseman, has been working diligently to put together another excellent meeting. Registration opened mid-April so if you haven’t sent in your registration and made room reservations it is not too early. They have an exciting line up of sessions planned that range from diversity, equity, and inclusion, to hospital onset bacteremia, catheter materials, and navigating the legal aspects of vascular access. If you have never traveled to the Pacific Northwest you are missing out on a special treat. The area is beautiful, and Portland is a great city to visit. Give yourself time to check out Multnomah Falls, Powell’s Books, and the food truck scene and have fun learning and honing your vascular access skills.AVA recently launched a new learning series called IV League learning. They are short learning opportunities intended to enhance your clinical knowledge. These 15-minute to 30-minute events are followed by a Q&A period. We want all clinicians and those in the process of becoming a licensed clinician to join. I hope you have had a chance to take advantage of these quick learning opportunities. They are held every other Wednesday at 7:30 pm EST. The link to register has been shared through email and social media. If you want to join and have not received the link, please email AVA at ava@avainfo.org. I encourage you to take advantage of this great clinical education.I also want to follow up on the survey we conducted late last year. There were a number of issues around a common theme—Networks. It is always interesting when analyzing survey data to see common themes such as this come from varied groups of respondents.

CVADs play an essential role in modern medicine, serving as lifelines for many patients. To maintain safe and stable venous access, infection prevention bundles are used to help protect patients from complications such as CLABSI. Despite most CLABSIs being preventable, rates have been on the rise, often disproportionately impacting critically ill children. New solutions are needed to strengthen infection prevention bundles and protect CVADs from pathogen entry at catheter hubs and line connections.
