    Objective: Systematize the evidence on the clinical benefits of early removal of dressings in clean surgical wounds. Materials and Methods: In the final selection, 10 studies were chosen, the systematic review of the 10 scientific articles on Clinical benefits of early removal of dressings in clean surgical wounds, were found in the following databases Lilacs, Pubmed, Medline and Cochrane Plus , Systematic Review 05, Randomized Clinical Trials 04 and Cross-sectional 01 were included. Results: The 10 reviewed articles, the 70% (n=07/10) of these show that early removal of dressings in clean surgical wounds has clinical and economic benefits, such as a shorter hospital stay and a significant reduction in costs; 30% (n=03/10) affirm that there is not enough scientific evidence to recommend early removal of dressings in clean surgical wounds. Conclusions: Of the 10 articles reviewed, 70% (n=07/10) of these (8,9,10,11,12,13,17) agree that there is evidence that early removal of dressings in surgical wounds clean has clinical and economic benefits, such as shorter hospital stay and a significant reduction in costs; 30% (n=03/10) of the authors of the studies (14,15,16) state that there is insufficient scientific evidence to recommend early removal of dressings in clean surgical wounds.
