    Objective: Systematize the available evidence from studies carried out on the effectiveness of interventions to prevent urinary tract infections associated with the use of bladder catheters in patients in critical units. Material and Methods: The Systematic Review of the 10 scientific articles found were found in the following database Pubmed, Medline, Scielo, all of them were analyzed using the evaluation according to the Grade system to see quality and strength of evidence. Results: In the final compilation, 10 articles were chosen, we found that 50% (05) correspond to the United States, with 30% (03) Spain, 10% (01) to Brazil and 10% (1) to England. Most of the quasi-experimental studies have been studied with 50% (05), being from Spain, England and the United States, systematic reviews with 40% (04), being from Spain, Brazil and the United States, and descriptive studies. with 10% (1) corresponding to the United States. 50% (n=5/10) agree that evidence-based nursing interventions are effective in avoiding infections due to bladder catheterization, while 40% (n=4/10) mention that protocols, guidelines and preventive programs are of unavoidable use to avoid infections due to the use of this invasive device. Likewise, 10% (n=1/10) propose implementation strategies that will help prevent urinary tract infections, obtaining an effective response to this problem. Conclusions: 5 of the 10 evidence indicate that evidence-based nursing interventions (timely removal of the catheter, effective asepsis and timely evidence of signs of infection) promote the evaluation of the permanence of urinary catheterization and its eventual removal at the time. which is unnecessary, therefore, to achieve a decrease in the rate of urinary tract catheterization infections.
