PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF INFECTION RELATED TO PERIPHERAL ARTERIAL CATHETER MANAGEMENT

PREVENCIÓN Y CONTROL DE INFECCIONES RELACIONADAS CON EL MANEJO DEL CATÉTER ARTERIAL PERIFÉRICO

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

ABSTRACT

Objective:

to describe scientific evidence on good practices for peripheral arterial catheter management.

Method:

this is an integrative review, carried out through a search in the Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences, Virtual Health Nursing Library, National Library of Medicine, Cochrane Library, Cumulative Index to Nursing & Allied Health, Excerpta Medica dataBASE, SciVerse Scopus TopCited and Web of Science databases in March 2021. Articles in Portuguese, English and Spanish, without time limits in the search, were included.

Results:

forty-nine articles were found. At insertion, measures involved hand hygiene, skin preparation, no-touch technique, aseptic technique and protective barrier, sterile components and transducers, peripheral arterial catheter insertion, insertion attempts, ultrasound and comfort measure use. During maintenance, issues regarding insertion site, invasive blood pressure circuit, connectors, dressing and stabilization were identified, and, during removal, aspects such as local and systemic complications after peripheral arterial catheter removal.

Conclusion:

the study provides crucial information for the effective management of peripheral arterial catheters, contributing to the reduction of complications and improvement of clinical results. By updating their practices, healthcare professionals can ensure greater safety and well-being for patients, always seeking to provide excellent care.
