An analysis of scientific literature about the use of central venous catheters in hospitalized adults

Objective: to characterize the scientific production related to the use of central venous catheter for patients hospitalized adults. Method: A literature search with VHL, in databases BDENF, LILACS and SCIELO, using the keywords: central venous catheter and an adult. 11 articles were selected for analysis. Results: The production on the theme is developed mainly for medical journals published in this knowledge area, approaching the incidence of infections and associated factors. Other aspects discussed relate to the indications for use of the CVC, and insertion site complications. With respect to nursing care, to prevent and minimize the amount of infections and maintain the proper functioning of the catheter, highlight hand washing as a measure paramount. Conclusion: The low current scientific production of nursing focusing on this issue points to the need to resume the clinical aspects of daily care for the hospitalized patient.
