Objetivo: analisar as Etapas do Processo de Cuidado ao Paciente com Cateter Venoso Central (CPCVC) buscando identificar falhas potenciais para a prevenção de infecção de corrente sanguínea na unidade de terapia intensiva. Método: utilizou-se o Método de Análise de Falhas e Efeitos. Estudo realizado nas Unidades de Terapia Intensiva de um hospital de grande porte na cidade de Caxias do Sul. Nove profissionais de enfermagem constituíram o grupo de avaliação. Para o cálculo de risco, foram definidas a gravidade, a probabilidade de ocorrência e a possibilidade de detecção em cada item avaliado. Resultados: os resultados apontaram inconformidades como falta de critério de indicação e riscos relacionados à proteção de barreira e à inserção e manutenção do cateter. Conclusão: considera-se que a equipe estava comprometida com a qualificação do processo de CPCVC. Entretanto, é necessária a implementação de estratégias para promover ações que impeçam a ocorrência das falhas potenciais.
Objective: To evaluate the complementarity of the revised Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scale and of the Inventory of Pain Behavior in Neurological Disability for the assessment of pain in children with severe neurological impairment. Method: Cross-sectional study conducted in pediatric units of a university hospital in the southern region of Brazil. The sample consisted of 26 children with severe neurological impairment, hospitalized from January to August 2019, and their caregivers. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics; Kappa Coefficient, Fisher’s Exact Test and Spearman’s Coefficient were used (p≤0,05). Results: Most children primary diagnosis was cerebral palsy (80.8%). Pain was present in 50.0% of children with the application of the scale and in 34.6% with that of the inventory. Considering the two instruments, there was good agreement (84.6%) between respondents (k=0.692; 95% CI 0.437-0.967; p=0.000). Conclusion: The instruments can be used complementarily to assess pain in children with this profile.
