This is an exploratory and descriptive research, primarily aiming at the analysis of factors that interfere in clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) procedure in children with neurogenic bladder, secondary to myelomeningocele (MMC), under caregiver’s perception. Fifty five 29-days-old to 11 years and 11 months-old children participated in the study. They were engaged to a child general hospital in Fortaleza City – CE; they should be using assisted clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) and they had accomplished the rehabilitation program. Most of children were students (74.5%) and female (58.2%), receiving continued social benefit-cost (78.2%) and their family incomes were until 2 minimum wages. Most of caregivers in the study had 32 to 39 years-old (38.2%), were women (96.4%), married (69.1%), had the Mid Level concluded (58.2%) and did not have outdoor occupation (89.1%). Concerning to the house infrastructure, most of residences had treated water (90.9%), basic sanitation (69.1), bathroom (100%), from 4 to 5 rooms (50.9%), door in the place where the CIC was administered (63.6%) and from 4 to 5 people cohabitating the same environment (47.3). Related to the factors that interfere in the CIC procedure, positively interfered: child’s age (p=0.047); caregiver without outdoor occupation (p=0.038); perception of continued social benefit-cost (p=0.0001); reception of material used in CIC from Municipal District or State (p=0.0001); good caregiver’s visual acuity (p=0.0001) and dexterity (p=0.0001); acceptation from child (p=0.0001) and caregiver (p=0.0001) related to the procedure (p=0.0001); absence of intercurrence during CIC administration (p=0.0001). Related to the negative factors, it is related: urethral sensibility (p=0.002), urinary losses in the intervals of CIC; continuous use of diapers and the presence of urethral sensibility in these children (p=0.0001). Two investigated factors did not present any interference: amount of rooms and number of people cohabitating with child in the house (p=0.0001). These results suggest that the number of variables positively interfering in CIC administration was superior to the negative ones. So, findings are extremely relevant so they enable the inference that the adhesion to CIC is made easy by the presence of such factors.
