“…The contamination of coagulase-negative staphylococci (55.6%) was most frequent. These results confirm the observations of the control studies by Morin [11] and Capdevila [6]. Clinical signs of slight infections were observed in only 0.2% of catheterizations (Figure 3).…”

“…Para reduzir o risco de colonização ou contaminação do cateter peridural, as seguintes medidas devem ser adotadas: escovação das mãos, uso da barreira de precaução máxima pelo anestesista; preparo da pele do paciente com antisséptico alcoólico na implantação do cateter; uso de curativo semiperméavel na inserção do cateter; uso de filtro antibacteriano durante a permanência do cateter peridural no paciente; vigilância do curativo e do local de inserção do cateter na pele, controle da temperatura do paciente e monitorização das queixas do paciente, como a ocorrência de sinais de meningismo (18)(19)(22)(23)(24)(27)(28)(29)(30) .…”
