ABSTRACT

The aim of this integrative review was to identify scientific studies on risk factors for bloodstream infections associated with central venous catheters (CVC) in cancer patients. The research question was formulated according to the PICO framework. An electronic search was conducted on the SciELO digital library, the Virtual Health Library, and the MEDLINE/PubMed databases using the descriptors “cancer”, “infection”, “central venous catheters”, and “risk factors”. A total of 356 publications were identified (356 in PubMed, 00 in the VHL, and 00 in SciELO). Based on the PRISMA guidelines, 32 articles were included in this review. Recent study dates from 2021. The handling of the central catheters by professionals and the administration of parenteral nutrition were the main risk factors for CVC infections. The implementation of basic healthcare and hygiene measures is essential for the prevention and reduction of bloodstream infections associated with central catheters.

RESUMO

O objetivo desta revisão integrativa foi identificar estudos científicos sobre fatores de risco para infecções de corrente sanguínea associadas a cateteres venosos centrais (CVC) em pacientes com câncer. A questão de pesquisa foi formulada de acordo com a estrutura PICO. Foi realizada uma busca eletrônica na biblioteca digital SciELO, na Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e nas bases de dados MEDLINE/PubMed, utilizando os descritores “câncer”, “infecção”, “cateteres venosos centrais” e “fatores de risco”. Foram identificadas 356 publicações (356 no PubMed, 00 na BVS e 00 no SciELO). Com base nas diretrizes PRISMA, 32 artigos foram incluídos nesta revisão. Estudo recente data de 2021. O manuseio dos cateteres centrais pelos profissionais e a administração de nutrição parenteral foram os principais fatores de risco para infecções por CVC. A implementação de medidas básicas de saúde e higiene é essencial para a prevenção e redução de infecções de corrente sanguínea associadas a cateteres centrais.
