Central venous catheter dressings: a systematic review

Abstract: There was no evidence of any difference in the incidence of infectious complications between any of the dressing types compared in this review. Each of these comparisons was based on no more than two studies and all of these studies reported data from a small patient sample. Therefore it is unlikely that any of these comparisons would have had sufficient power to detect any differences between groups.

“…Also it showed that there is highly significant improvement in physician practice in surgical ICU after intervention regarding use of sterile gown and fulfilling precaution by all personnel. These finding were similar to that reported by Taylor et al (30) but against to thast reported by Sean et al (3) . They found that 92% of healthcare providers used hat, mask, and sterile gown and 100% of them used sterile gloves.…”

“…There were no evidences in differences between the incidences of infections between the two types of dressings. Authors conclude that there is uncertainty regarding the infection risk in transparent film dressings, suggesting studies with a greater number of patients in the sample to identify the most adequate dressing for central venous catheter (19) . A randomized controlled clinical trial on the application of topical mupirocin 2% in the site where catheter was inserted, in 136 patients, as a prophylaxis for S. aureus in patients with CVC for hemodialysis, the authors concluded that there was significant reduction in S. aureus skin infection and in bacteremia in patients using mupirocin prophylaxis compared to the control group (gauze and micropore dressing) (13) .…”

“…Na literatura constatamos uma revisão sistemática sobre curativos de cateter venoso central, avaliando oito estudos, dentre eles, o número 2 anteriormente descrito; os autores ao final, concluíram que tal assunto desperta um alto nível de incerteza sobre o risco de infecção e que a escolha do curativo baseia-se na preferência do paciente e da equipe. Embora o estudo não tenha avaliado pacientes exclusivos de TMO e sim, pacientes submetidos a implante de cateter venoso central de qualquer tipo (21) . Frente a análise dos artigos incluídos nesta revisão integrativa, recomenda-se a utilização de curativos com poliuretano, trocados a cada sete dias, com o uso de clorexidina, como agente anti-séptico para os pacientes submetidos ao TMO.…”
