Results: 1 meta-analysis and 3 articles were chosen in which we found that 50% (02) correspond to the United States with 25% (01), we find France and Israel with 25% (01) respectively. Of the total number of articles analyzed, 100% affirm the effectiveness of the use of dressings with chlorhexidine for CVC in the prevention of bacteremia and infections. The meta-analysis included 9 primary studies that showed a significant reduction in the incidence of infections due to colonization of the central venous catheter as well as bloodstream infection. A randomized trial demonstrated that the use of dressings impregnated with Chlorhexidine gel decreases the rate of CRF in ICU patients with a central venous catheter. A prospective comparative trial provided excellent results of bactericidal and antimicrobial action of the use of transparent dressings impregnated with CHG and finally a randomized controlled study was carried out in a pediatric cardiac intensive unit where gluconate sponge impregnated with chlorhexidine is safe and significantly reduces rates. of CVC colonization in infants and children after cardiac surgery. Conclusion: It was evident in the reviewed research that there is effectiveness in the use of adhesives with chlorhexidine for venous catheters in the prevention of bacteremia since it reduces the percentages of bacteremia associated with central venous catheters, therefore reducing hospital stay, deaths and costs. .Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of the use of external active heating devices in the perioperative period to reduce hypothermia in patients undergoing surgical intervention(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2020-02-16) Erribari Sulluchuco, Mirtha Nitza; Giraldo Vicente, Betzabé Maira; Gamarra Bustillos, CarlosObjective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of the use of external active heating devices in the perioperative period to reduce hypothermia in patients undergoing surgical intervention. Materials and Methods: A retrospective systematic review was carried out, which summarizes the findings of various primary studies. These investigations are an important part of evidence-based nursing to answer clinical questions. Thus, it was restricted to documents using the GRADE system, which allowed the recommendation power to be strengthened. Subsequently, the selected investigations were subjected to critical analysis. Results: Finally, 10 articles were selected, carried out in the present study, the active heating methods are efficient, although some seem to be more efficient than others. Better findings were obtained when warming was extended to the preoperative stage to reduce the occurrence of perioperative hypothermia. For this reason, intervention measures are necessary in order to prevent hypothermia and maintain normal temperature before and during the operation. Conclusions: Active warming methods were shown to be effective in maintaining perioperative normothermia. Being an effective measure (efficient and effective), since it increases body temperature and thermal comfort, patient satisfaction and facilitates venous cannulation, it reduces bleeding, infection of the surgical wound, mechanical ventilation time, use of fluids, vasodilators, morphine and antibiotics, blood pressure and cardiac disorders, reduces hospitalization time and costs. Warming during the intraoperative period is sufficient to effectively prevent hypothermia, both at this stage and in the postoperative period.Ítem Acceso abierto Family satisfaction regarding the care provided by the health professional in the intensive care unit of a metropolitan clinic, Lima 2020(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2020-10-11) Perez Rojas, Yuli; Fernández Rengifo, Werther FernandoObjective: Determine the level of family satisfaction with respect to the care provided by the health professional in the intensive care unit of a metropolitan clinic, Lima 2020 Material and methods: The research will have a quantitative approach because the data will be collected based on numerical measurement to later be analyzed statistically.
