Objectives: to identify and synthesize scientific evidence on preventing medical adhesive-related skin injuries in adult intensive care patients. Methods: this is a scoping review based on PRISMA-ScR recommendations and the technique proposed by Joanna Briggs Institute. PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, LILACS, and Embase databases were searched using “Injuries AND Adhesives AND Skin AND Medical” descriptors”. Results: 1,329 studies were identified, and after analysis, the final sample consisted of nine articles. We obtained two experts’ consensus, three case studies, two cross-sectional studies, one prospective cohort study, and one literature review regarding the type of studies. Final Considerations: the synthesized evidence allowed us to list health care measures to prevent medical adhesive-related skin injuries. The professional must know how to identify the skin injuries associated with medical adhesives and the main strategies for their prevention.
RESUMO Objetivos: identificar e sintetizar evidências científicas sobre prevenção de lesões de pele relacionadas a adesivo médico nos pacientes adultos em terapia intensiva. Métodos: trata-se de uma scoping review desenvolvida com base nas recomendações do PRISMA-ScR e no método proposto por Joanna Briggs Institute. Realizaram-se buscas nas bases de dados PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, LILACS e Embase, utilizando os descritores “Injuries AND Adhesives AND Skin AND Medical”. Resultados: identificaram-se 1.329 estudos; após análise, a amostra final foi composta por nove artigos. Quanto ao tipo de estudos, obtiveram-se dois consensos de especialistas, três estudos de caso, dois estudos transversais, um de coorte prospectivo e uma revisão de literatura. Considerações Finais: as evidências sintetizadas possibilitaram elencar cuidados para prevenção de lesões de pele relacionadas a adesivos médicos. É importante que o profissional saiba identificar tanto as lesões de pele relacionadas aos adesivos médicos quanto as principais estratégias para prevenção destas.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
