Implementation of the enhanced adult DIVA score in an emergency department: A prospective observational study
The EA-DIVA scale, originally validated in a preoperative setting, was effectively implemented for the first time in the ED. This study established a lower cutoff score for expert intervention utilizing ultrasound guidance compared with previous applications of the EA-DIVA scale. Further validation across diverse clinical settings and among healthcare providers with varying expertise in vascular access is necessary to confirm these findings and broaden their applicability.
