    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-08-12) Mera Vela, Janna Melisa; Deza La Cunza, Diana Margot; Calsin Pacompia, Wilmer
    Type of quantitative study, study design, systematic review, population 35 articles, sample 10 articles on the effectiveness of the use of antibiotics in sealing central venous catheters to reduce the risk of infection in hemodialysis patients, extracted from databases such as Lilacs , Cochrane Plus, Pubmed, Medline and Epistemonikos. 06 Meta-analysis, 02 Systematic Review, 02 Randomized Clinical Trials were included; Of the evidence found, 30% come from Canada, 20% from the United States and 10% from the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Israel, Belgium and Chile respectively, using the GRADE system to assign the strength of recommendation and the quality of evidence. . It is concluded that sealing the central venous catheter with antibiotic was effective in reducing the risk of infection in patients on hemodialysis since it was shown to reduce the incidence by 90% compared to sealing with 10% heparin. Of the total number of articles, 9 out of 10 demonstrate the effectiveness of the use of antibiotics in central venous catheter sealing to reduce the risk of infection in patients on hemodialysis, because it was shown to reduce episodes of catheter-related bacteremia compared to heparin sealing. and reduced bacterial resistance in tunneled catheter.
