    It was a systematic observational and retrospective review, the search has been restricted to articles with full text, subjected to critical reading, using the Grade evaluation to identify their level of evidence; of the 10 scientific articles reviewed, they were 40% (4/10) Systematic reviews: United States 20%, Australia 10%, Spain 10%; then 10% (1/10) Study Cohort: United States 10%; 10% (1/10) Quasi-experimental: Brazil 10%; and 40% (4/0) studied cases and controls: Netherlands 20%, United States 10%; India 10%. The systematic review allows us to show that the management of external ventricular drainage is effective in preventing the risk of infection of the central nervous system in newborns with hydrocephalus; For this reason, it is important to update knowledge about the management of these drainages and, on the other hand, achieve greater excellence in our professional performance.
