    Objective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of closed versus open circuit aspiration of secretions in the prevention of pneumonia associated with mechanical ventilators in patients treated in the ICU. Material and Methods: International articles are systematically reviewed by searching the Pubmed, Elsevier and Science Direct databases, which are analyzed through the grade system, using DECS and MESH descriptors. When evaluating the articles, the result was that 100% (10/10) of the articles correspond to Brazil, England, Japan, the United States, China, India, Egypt, Korea, Switzerland and Iran respectively. Results: 90% (09/10) of the evidence indicates that the effectiveness is similar between open and closed endotracheal suction systems in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients hospitalized in the ICU, and 10% (01/ 10) indicate that the closed circuit is more effective than the open one. Conclusions: It is found that 09 of the 10 evidence conclude that the effectiveness is similar between open and closed endotracheal suction systems in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients hospitalized in the ICU, and 01 of 10 indicate that the closed circuit is more effective than open. Furthermore, both treated systems did not show desaturation.
