RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: to identify and compare the practice of Nursing professionals regarding the insertion of peripheral vascular access devices, according to professional category. METHOD: descriptive sectional study carried out between July 2021 and May 2022 with 2,584 Nursing professionals, using a questionnaire validated by three judges with expertise in intravenous therapy, containing variables related to catheterization and the vascular access device. Descriptive and inferential analysis was carried out. RESULTS: most professionals do not prepare the patient or perform some essential care before attempting peripheral intravenous catheterization. Regarding the preferred catheterization site, hands, arm and forearm stand out. There is no control over the tourniquet time, and the patient is punctured more than three times. The most used device materials are polyurethane and Teflon ® , more than one criterion is adopted for device selection, and Micropore ® type adhesive tape was the covering most cited by Nursing professionals. The identification of catheterization was not adequate. CONCLUSION: Nursing technicians and assistants are the professionals who least comply with what is recommended in recognized guidelines. Nurses' practice also presents deviations from scientific evidence.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the occurrence of difficulty in the peripheral insertion of the central catheter and the presence of complications in the use of this device in hospitalized adults who received peripheral intravenous therapy through a short peripheral intravenous catheter and to identify whether there is an association between peripheral intravenous therapy and the presence of complications in the use of the peripherally inserted central catheter. METHOD: retrospective cohort, with patients aged 18 years or over, in a tertiary teaching hospital, with a peripherally inserted central catheter, who had at least one previous short peripheral intravenous catheter. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Poisson regression. RESULTS: the sample consisted of 76 patients. There was an association between difficulty in the insertion procedure and number of punctures (p<0.01) and insertion in the external jugular vein compared to the upper limbs (p<0.01). The insertion site was also associated with the removal of the peripherally inserted central catheter due to complications in the robust analysis of variance (p=0.02). No associations were identified between: difficulty inserting the device and time on peripheral intravenous therapy (crude model p=0.23; adjusted model p=0.21); difficulty in insertion with administration of irritating and vesicant medication (crude model p=0.69; adjusted model p=0.53); complication in the use of peripherally inserted central catheter and time of peripheral intravenous therapy (crude and adjusted models p=0.08); and secondary migration of the catheter tip with the device insertion site (p=0.24). CONCLUSION: it was possible to identify secondary migration as one of the main complications, resulting in premature removal of the device. Furthermore, the greater the number of puncture attempts to insert the PICC, the greater the difficulty in inserting it. Insertion into the external jugular vein was recurrent, with a higher risk of removal due to complications in relation to the upper limbs.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the effectiveness of peripherally inserted central catheter insertion techniques in preventing the occurrence of complications related to this device in newborns. METHOD: a paired and network systematic literature review and meta-analysis, with its search carried out in seven databases and in the Grey Literature, including randomized and non-randomized clinical trials. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 and Risk of Bias In Non-randomized Studies of Interventions tools. Certainty of the evidence was assessed by means of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. A meta-analysis was carried out with the aid of the R statistical program. RESULTS: eight studies with 1,126 newborns were included and six insertion techniques were identified: intracavitary electrocardiogram; intracavitary electrocardiogram associated with ultrasound; ultrasound; formula; anatomical landmark; and modified anatomical landmark. Five techniques significantly decreased primary tip malpositioning when compared to the control ( p <0.05). Intracavitary electrocardiogram significantly and more effectively reduced arrhythmias, general complications and phlebitis; the technique that used a formula also reduced general complications. Infection, infiltration, secondary tip malpositioning, catheter rupture, thrombosis, occlusion and catheter-associated skin lesion were not significantly preventable events. CONCLUSION: intracavitary electrocardiogram and use of the formula were the most effective techniques in reducing complications.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The PiccPed® health application was developed to support clinical decision-making in peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) management. We aimed to evaluate its impact on nurses' knowledge regarding the prevention of PICC-associated adverse events in pediatrics and neonatology. METHODS: A quasi-experimental, pre-post intervention study, was conducted with a dependent/paired sample of pediatric and neonatal nurses from two tertiary hospitals in South Brazil. Data were collected from October 2022 to January 2023 across three phases: pre-, intervention (use of the PiccPed®) and post-test. Study outcomes were a knowledge test (15 questions) of evidence-based PICC maintenance procedures, and PiccPed® app time spent and screens used. RESULTS: A total of 56 nurses completed the study. The post-test mean score was significantly higher (12/15; standard deviation (SD) 1.9) in comparison with the pre-test (mean 9/15; SD 2.2). The change in scores was significantly higher for nurses without postgraduate qualifications, in comparison to those with (Mean Difference 1.26; p = 0.039). Each minute using the app resulted in a significant increase of 0.04 points (95% confidence interval 0.01-0.08; p = 0.014) on the mean post-test score (10.94 points). CONCLUSION: The research demonstrated that PiccPed® enhances nurses' learning regarding the prevention of adverse events associated with PICC maintenance in pediatrics and neonatology. APPLICATION TO PRACTICE: The app can be safely and effectively used for training and continuing education of nurses who care for children and neonates with PICCs.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To estimate the prevalence of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC)-related venous thrombosis in patients with hematological malignancies. METHODS: A systematic review of observational studies that evaluated the occurrence of PICC-related venous thrombosis in children, adults, and older people with hematological malignancies was conducted. Searches were carried out on June 12th, 2023 on PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, Scopus, and LILACS, and to gray literature on Google Scholar, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global. Eligibility criteria were applied independently by two reviewers, first on the titles and abstracts on the Rayyan platform and then on the full text of eligible studies. Risk of bias was assessed by the JBI checklist. Data were summarized descriptively, and the meta-analysis was carried out using the MetaXL 5.3 software. The review followed JBI guidelines and PRISMA for reporting. RESULTS: In the 40 studies included, prevalence of PICC-related venous thrombosis was 9% in general, 9% in adults, and 6% in children with hematological malignancies. Most studies only evaluated cases of symptomatic thrombosis (n = 25; 64%). CONCLUSION: Patients with hematological malignancies using PICC have an estimated prevalence of PICC-related venous thrombosis of 9%, and this rate may be underestimated due to the consideration of mostly symptomatic cases.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Deep Venous Thrombosis (DVT) due to Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) is one of the most threatening complications after device insertion. OBJECTIVE: To assess the rate of PICC-associated DVT and analyze the risk factors associated with this event in cancer and critically ill patients. METHODS: We conducted a descriptive, retrospective cohort study with 11,588 PICCs from December 2014 to December 2019. Patients ≥ 18 years receiving a PICC were included. Pre-and post-puncture variables were collected and a logistic regression was used to identify the independent factors associated with the risk of DVT. RESULTS: The DVT prevalence was 1.8% (n = 213). The median length of PICC use was 15.3 days. The median age was 75 years (18; 107) and 52% were men, 53.5% were critically ill and 29.1% oncological patients. The most common indications for PICC's were intravenous antibiotics (79.1%). Notably, 91.5% of PICC showed a catheter-to-vein ratio of no more than 33%. The tip location method with intracavitary electrocardiogram was used in 43%. Most catheters (67.9%) were electively removed at the end of intravenous therapy. After adjusting for cancer profile ou chemotherapy, regression anaysis revealed that age (OR 1.011; 95% CI 1.002-1.020), previous DVT (OR 1.96; 95% CI 1.12-3.44) and obstruction of the device (OR 1.60; 95% CI 1.05-2.42) were independent factors associated with PICC-associated DVT, whereas the use of an anticoagulant regimen was a protective variable (OR 0.73; 95% CI 0.54-0.99). CONCLUSION: PICC is a safe and suitable intravenous device for medium and long-term therapy, with low rates of DVT even in a cohort of critically ill and cancer patients.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Newborn infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit require arterial cannulation for hemodynamic monitoring and blood sampling. Arterial access is achieved through catheterization of umbilical or peripheral arteries. Peripheral artery cannulation is performed in critically ill newborns, but artery localization and cannulation is often challenging and unsuccessful. Therefore, increasing the internal diameter and preventing vasospasm are important for successful peripheral artery cannulation in neonates. Topical glyceryl trinitrate has the potential to increase cannulation success by relaxing arterial smooth muscles and thus increasing the internal diameter. We aim to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topycal glyceryl trinitrate in increasing the diameter of the radial artery in neonates. METHODS/DESIGN: This study will be a single-center, observer-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit of Perth Children's Hospital, Western Australia. A total of 60 infants born at >34 weeks of gestation who are admitted for elective surgery or medical reasons and for whom a peripheral arterial line is needed for sampling or blood pressure monitoring will be recruited after informed parental consent is obtained. The primary outcome will be the change in radial arterial diameter from baseline to postintervention. Secondary outcomes will be the absolute and percentage change from baseline in the radial arterial diameter in both limbs and safety (hypotension and methemoglobinemia). DISCUSSION: This will be the first randomized controlled trial evaluating the use of topical glyceryl trinitrate to facilitate peripheral artery cannulation in neonates. If our pilot randomized controlled trial confirms the benefits of glyceryl trinitrate patches, it will pave the way for large multicenter randomized controlled trials in this field.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the comparative effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) compared with centrally inserted central catheters (CICCs). METHODS: Prospective cohort study was followed by an economic analysis over a 30-day time horizon. Propensity score matching was used to select hospitalized adults with similar indications for PICC or CICC. The composite outcome was device removal or replacement because of complications before the end of treatment. The economic evaluation was based on a decision tree model for cost-effectiveness analysis, with calculation of the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) per catheter removal avoided. All costs are presented in Brazilian reais (BRL) (1 BRL = 0.1870 US dollar). RESULTS: A total of 217 patients were followed in each group; 172 (79.3%) of those receiving a PICC and 135 (62.2%) of those receiving a CICC had no device-related complication, respectively. When comparing the events leading to device removal, the risk of composite endpoint was significantly higher in the CICC group (hazard ratio 0.20; 95% CI 0.11-0.35). The cost of PICC placement was BRL 1290.98 versus BRL 467.16 for a CICC. In the base case, the ICER for placing a PICC instead of a CICC was BRL 3349.91 per removal or replacement avoided. On univariate sensitivity analyses, the model proved to be robust within an ICER range of 2500.00 to 4800.00 BRL. CONCLUSIONS: PICC placement was associated with a lower risk of complications than CICC placement. Although the cost of a PICC is higher, its use avoided complications and need for catheter replacement before the end of treatment.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) through transradial access (TRA) is emerging as an alternative to carotid endarterectomy. However, the current evidence base is limited, mainly comprising single-center studies. OBJECTIVE: This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to assess the safety and effectiveness of TRA for CAS, providing evidence to support clinical decisions. METHODS: We conducted searches on PUBMED, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science databases, including studies on TRA for CAS. Studies with fewer than 20 patients, non-primary outcomes, and non-full-text articles were excluded. RESULTS: We analyzed 14 studies involving 1,166 patients who underwent CAS via TRA. Procedural success rate was high in 13 studies, with a 95% rate (95% CI; 92%-98%). Crossover to TFA access was observed in 12 studies at 6% (95% CI: 3%-9%). Transradial access failure was reported in four studies, with a rate of 0% (95% CI: 0%-0%). Cannulation failure resulted in a rate of 4% (95% CI: 2%-7%). Asymptomatic radial artery occlusion (ARAO) occurred at a rate of 2% based on eight studies (95% CI: 0%-5%). Forearm hematoma was reported in 10 studies, with an occurrence of 1% (95% CI: 0%-2%). Cerebral vascular attacks (CAV) within 30 days were assessed in 13 studies, indicating a 2% occurrence (95% CI: 1%-2%). CONCLUSION: The findings suggest that TRA for CAS yields promising outcomes with high success rates and low complication rates. Further research should focus on randomized controlled trials and long-term outcomes to validate and extend findings.

RESUMEN

This study evaluated peripheral intravenous catheter insertion by licensed practical nurses in a simulated scenario. This cross-sectional and descriptive study was performed in a general hospital's simulation center located in Brazil, from January to October 2020. The authors developed a tool from the leading guidelines to measure peripheral intravenous catheter insertion performance in 60 licensed practical nurses. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, with proportions for categorical variables and analytical statistics to denote significance, using SPSS version 22.0. Ethical aspects were respected. Despite the sample comprising professionals who declared an average experience with peripheral intravenous catheter insertion of 6.4 years, at least 50% failed in some tool element. This low score on peripheral intravenous catheter insertion performance is because automation is possible without efforts to improve it. Adding years of practice does not generate better performance. The licensed practical nurses' performance was lower than expected, considering their reported experience, which poses a risk to patient safety. The training of these professionals needs to be discussed in countries where the practice is legal. Skills training should include simulation to approximate clinical practice; nurses must exercise their role in supervising the team.

RESUMEN

Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) ensure safe and long-lasting venous access. Using validated instruments to assess nurses' knowledge of PICC use will allow educational measures to improve this area of care to be developed. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to build an instrument for analysing nurses' knowledge about PICCs and assess its content validity. METHODS: A psychometric study was used with the construction of a knowledge analysis instrument. This was developed in two stages: instrument construction; and content validation by expert judges using the content validity ratio. RESULTS: The panel of experts comprised nine nurses. Nineteen changes related to content and semantics were suggested for the instrument. CONCLUSION: The research allowed for the construction and validation of a tool for knowledge analysis; this is relevant to practice as no such knowledge instrument exists. It is proposed to use this assessment instrument to identify gaps in knowledge and implement focused training interventions.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Percutaneous axillary artery access is increasingly used for large-bore access during interventional vascular and cardiac procedures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and learning curve of percutaneous axillary artery access in patients undergoing complex endovascular aortic repair (fenestrated and branched endovascular aneurysm repair [FBEVAR]) requiring large-bore upper extremity access and to discuss best practices for technique and complication management. METHODS: One-hundred forty-six patients undergoing large-bore percutaneous axillary artery access during FBEVAR in a prospective, nonrandomized, Investigational Device Exemption study between September 2017 and January 2023 were analyzed. Ultrasound guidance and micropuncture were used to access the second portion of the axillary artery and 2 Perclose Proglide or Prostyle devices (Abbott Vascular) were predeployed before the insertion of the large-bore sheath. Completion angiography was performed in all patients to verify hemostatic closure. Axillary artery patency was also assessed on follow-up computed tomography angiography. Patient-related, procedural, and postoperative variables were collected and analyzed. RESULTS: One-hundred forty-five patients underwent successful percutaneous axillary artery access; 1 patient failed axillary access and alternative access was established. The left axillary artery was accessed in 115 patients (79%), and the right axillary artery was accessed in 30 patients (21%). The largest profile sheath was 14 F in 4 patients (2.8%), 12F in 133 patients (91.7%), and 8F in 8 patients (5.5%). Ten patients (6.9%) required covered stent placement (Viabahn, W. L. Gore & Associates) for failure to achieve hemostasis; there were no conversions to open surgical repair. Additional adverse events included transient upper extremity weakness in two patients (1.3%) and transient upper extremity paresthesias in two patients (1.3%). Three patients (2%) suffered postoperative strokes, including one unrelated hemorrhagic stroke and two possibly access-related embolic strokes. On follow-up, axillary artery patency was 100%. There was a trend toward decreased closure failure over time, with seven patients (10%) in the early cohort and three (4%) in the late cohort. There was a significant negative correlation between the cumulative complication rate and the cumulative experience. CONCLUSIONS: Large-bore percutaneous axillary artery access provides safe upper extremity large-bore access during FBEVAR, achieving successful closure in >90% of patients with a low incidence of access-related complications. There was a trend toward better closure rates with increasing experience, suggesting a learning curve effect. Application of best practices including ultrasound guidance and angiography may ensure safe application of the technique of percutaneous large-bore axillary artery access.

Method: retrospective cohort, with patients aged 18 years or over, in a tertiary teaching hospital, with a peripherally inserted central catheter, who had at least one previous short peripheral intravenous catheter. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Poisson regression. Results: the sample consisted of 76 patients. There was an association between difficulty in the insertion procedure and number of punctures (p<0.01) and insertion in the external jugular vein compared to the upper limbs (p<0.01). The insertion site was also associated with the removal of the peripherally inserted central catheter due to complications in the robust analysis of variance (p=0.02). No associations were identified between: difficulty inserting the device and time on peripheral intravenous therapy (crude model p=0.23; adjusted model p=0.21); difficulty in insertion with administration of irritating and vesicant medication (crude model p=0.69; adjusted model p=0.53); complication in the use of peripherally inserted central catheter and time of peripheral intravenous therapy (crude and adjusted models p=0.08); and secondary migration of the catheter tip with the device insertion site (p=0.24). Conclusion: it was possible to identify secondary migration as one of the main complications, resulting in premature removal of the device. Furthermore, the greater the number of puncture attempts to insert the PICC, the greater the difficulty in inserting it. Insertion into the external jugular vein was recurrent, with a higher risk of removal due to complications in relation to the upper limbs.

Objetivo: analizar la aparición de dificultad en la inserción periférica del catéter central y la presencia de complicaciones en el uso de este dispositivo en adultos hospitalizados que recibieron terapia intravenosa periférica a través de un catéter intravenoso periférico corto e identificar si existe asociación entre la terapia intravenosa periférica y la presencia de complicaciones en el uso del catéter central de inserción periférica. Método: cohorte retrospectiva, con pacientes de 18 años o más, en un hospital universitario terciario, con catéter central de inserción periférica, que tuvieran al menos un catéter intravenoso periférico corto previo. Los datos se analizaron mediante estadística descriptiva y regresión de Poisson. Resultados: la muestra estuvo compuesta por 76 pacientes. Hubo asociación entre dificultad en el procedimiento de inserción y número de punciones (p<0,01) e inserción en la vena yugular externa en comparación con los miembros superiores (p<0,01). El sitio de inserción también se asoció con la retirada del catéter central insertado periféricamente debido a complicaciones en el análisis de varianza robusto (p=0,02). No se identificaron asociaciones entre: dificultad para insertar el dispositivo y tiempo de terapia intravenosa periférica (modelo crudo p=0,23; modelo ajustado p=0,21); dificultad en la inserción y administración de medicación irritante y vesicante (modelo crudo p=0,69; modelo ajustado p=0,53); complicación en el uso de catéter central de inserción periférica y tiempo de terapia intravenosa periférica (modelos crudo y ajustado p=0,08); y migración secundaria de la punta del catéter y el sitio de inserción del dispositivo (p=0,24). Conclusión: se pudo identificar la migración secundaria como una de las principales complicaciones, resultando en la retirada prematura del dispositivo. Además, cuanto mayor sea el número de intentos de punción para insertar el PICC, mayor será la dificultad para insertarlo. La inserción en vena yugular externa fue recurrente, con mayor riesgo de extracción por complicaciones en relación a los miembros superiores.

Objetivo: analisar a ocorrência de dificuldade na inserção periférica do cateter central e a presença de complicações no uso deste dispositivo em adultos hospitalizados que receberam terapia intravenosa periférica por cateter intravenoso periférico curto e identificar se há associação entre terapia intravenosa periférica e presença de complicações no uso do cateter central inserido perifericamente. Método: coorte retrospectiva, com pacientes de idade igual ou superior a 18 anos, em hospital terciário de ensino, com cateter central inserido perifericamente, que tiveram ao menos um cateter intravenoso periférico curto prévio. Os dados foram analisados por meio de estatística descritiva e regressão de Poisson. Resultados: a amostra foi constituída por 76 pacientes. Houve associação entre dificuldade no procedimento de inserção e número de punções (p<0,01) e inserção em veia jugular externa em comparação aos membros superiores (p<0,01). O local de inserção também apresentou associação com a remoção do cateter central inserido perifericamente por complicações na análise de variância robusta (p=0,02). Não foram identificadas associações entre: dificuldade de inserção do dispositivo com tempo de terapia intravenosa periférica (modelo bruto p=0,23; modelo ajustado p=0,21); dificuldade de inserção com administração de medicamento irritante e vesicante (modelo bruto p=0,69; modelo ajustado p=0,53); complicação no uso do cateter central inserido perifericamente e tempo de terapia intravenosa periférica (modelo bruto e ajustado p=0,08); e migração secundária da ponta do cateter com local de inserção do dispositivo (p=0,24). Conclusão: foi possível identificar a migração secundária como uma das principais complicações, resultando na remoção prematura do dispositivo. Além disso, quanto maior o número de tentativas de punções para a inserção do PICC, maior a dificuldade de inseri-lo. A inserção em veia jugular externa foi recorrente, sendo evidenciado maior risco de remoção por complicação em relação aos membros superiores.

RESUMEN

Objective: to analyze the effectiveness of peripherally inserted central catheter insertion techniques in preventing the occurrence of complications related to this device in newborns. Method: a paired and network systematic literature review and meta-analysis, with its search carried out in seven databases and in the Grey Literature, including randomized and non-randomized clinical trials. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 and Risk of Bias In Non-randomized Studies of Interventions tools. Certainty of the evidence was assessed by means of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. A meta-analysis was carried out with the aid of the R statistical program. Results: eight studies with 1,126 newborns were included and six insertion techniques were identified: intracavitary electrocardiogram; intracavitary electrocardiogram associated with ultrasound; ultrasound; formula; anatomical landmark; and modified anatomical landmark. Five techniques significantly decreased primary tip malpositioning when compared to the control ( p <0.05). Intracavitary electrocardiogram significantly and more effectively reduced arrhythmias, general complications and phlebitis; the technique that used a formula also reduced general complications. Infection, infiltration, secondary tip malpositioning, catheter rupture, thrombosis, occlusion and catheter-associated skin lesion were not significantly preventable events. Conclusion: intracavitary electrocardiogram and use of the formula were the most effective techniques in reducing complications.

Objetivo: analizar la efectividad de las técnicas de inserción de catéter central de inserción periférica en la prevención de la aparición de complicaciones asociadas con este dispositivo en recién nacidos. Método: revisión sistemática de la literatura y metaanálisis pareado y en red, la búsqueda se realizó en siete bases de datos y en la literatura gris, se incluyeron ensayos clínicos aleatorizados y no aleatorizados. El riesgo de sesgo se evaluó mediante las herramientas Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 y Risk of Bias In Non-randomized Studies of Interventions . La certeza de la evidencia a través de la Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation . Se realizó un metaanálisis con ayuda del programa estadístico R. Resultados: se incluyeron ocho estudios, con 1126 recién nacidos, y se identificaron seis técnicas de inserción: electrocardiograma intracavitario, electrocardiograma intracavitario asociado a ultrasonido, ultrasonido, fórmula, punto anatómico de referencia y punto anatómico de referencia modificado. Cinco técnicas redujeron significativamente el mal posicionamiento primario de la punta en comparación con el control (p<0,05). El electrocardiograma intracavitario redujo de manera significativa y más efectiva las arritmias, las complicaciones generales y la flebitis; la técnica que utilizó una fórmula también redujo las complicaciones generales. La infección, la infiltración, el mal posicionamiento secundario de la punta, la rotura del catéter, la trombosis, la oclusión y las lesiones de la piel asociadas con el catéter son eventos que no se revinieron significativamente. Conclusión: el electrocardiograma intracavitario y el uso de la fórmula fueron las técnicas más efectivas para reducir las complicaciones.

Objetivo: analisar a efetividade das técnicas de inserção de cateter central de inserção periférica na prevenção da ocorrência de complicações relacionadas a este dispositivo em recém-nascidos. Método: revisão sistemática da literatura e metanálise pareada e em rede, com busca realizada em sete bases de dados e na literatura cinzenta, inclusão de ensaios clínicos aleatorizados e não aleatorizados. O risco de viés foi avaliado pelas ferramentas da Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 e o Risk of Bias In Non-randomised Studies of Interventions. A certeza da evidência pelo Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation. Realizou-se metanálise com auxílio do programa estatístico R. Resultados: oito estudos, com 1126 recém-nascidos, foram incluídos e seis técnicas de inserção identificadas: eletrocardiograma intracavitário, eletrocardiograma intracavitário associado à ultrassonografia, ultrassonografia, fórmula, marco de referência anatômico e marco de referência anatômico modificado. Cinco técnicas diminuíram significativamente o mau posicionamento primário da ponta quando comparadas com o controle ( p <0,05). O eletrocardiograma intracavitário diminuiu arritmias, complicações gerais e flebite de forma significativa e mais efetiva; a técnica que utilizou uma fórmula também reduziu complicações gerais. Infecção, infiltração, mau posicionamento secundário da ponta, ruptura do cateter, trombose, oclusão e lesão de pele associada ao cateter não foram eventos prevenidos significativamente. Conclusão: eletrocardiograma intracavitário e uso da fórmula foram as técnicas mais efetivas na redução de complicações.
