Resumo: Introduction: The use of peripheral venous catheters (PVC) is the most common nursing procedure and carries patient risks, including developing phlebitis. A nursing care protocol for PVC was created at the institutional level to standardize nurses' practices. Objective: To analyze the incidence of phlebitis associated with PVC before (Group A) and after (Group B) implementation of the protocol; Characterize phlebitis associated with PVC; Identify risk factors that contribute to the development of phlebitis associated with PVC. Methods: An observational, quantitative, and descriptive study was carried out, with non-probabilistic samples for convenience, in which each group consisted of 50 participants. Results: After implementing the protocol, there was a reduction in the incidence rate of phlebitis from 26% to 12%, as well as a decrease in grade 3 phlebitis, with only grade 1 and 2 phlebitis being identified. It was also found that around 90% of the participants with phlebitis were undergoing antibiotic therapy, namely Amoxicillin + Clavulanic Acid, and Flucloxacillin. Conclusion: The protocol could have benefits in reducing the incidence of phlebitis by standardizing practices based on scientific evidence, providing better quality of care, and lowering the costs associated with hospitalization.

Se creó un protocolo de cuidados de enfermería para el CVP a nivel institucional con el fin de estandarizar las prácticas de las enfermeras. Objetivo: Analizar la incidencia de la flebitis asociada a la CVP antes (Grupo A) y después (Grupo B) de la aplicación del protocolo; caracterizar la flebitis asociada a la CVP; Identificar los factores de riesgo que contribuyen al desarrollo de la flebitis asociada a la CVP. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, cuantitativo y descriptivo, con muestras no probabilísticas por conveniencia, en el que cada grupo estaba formado por 50 participantes. Resultados: Tras aplicar el protocolo, se produjo una reducción de la tasa de incidencia de flebitis del 26% al 12%, así como una reducción de las flebitis de grado 3, identificándose únicamente flebitis de grado 1 y 2. También se descubrió que alrededor del 90% de los participantes con flebitis recibían tratamiento antibiótico, concretamente Amoxicilina + Ácido Clavulánico y Flucloxacilina. Conclusión: El protocolo podría tener beneficios en términos de reducción de la incidencia de la flebitis mediante la estandarización de prácticas basadas en pruebas científicas, proporcionando una mejor calidad de la atención y reduciendo los costes asociados a la hospitalización.Introdução: A utilização de cateteres venosos periféricos (CVP) é o procedimento de enfermagem mais comum e acarreta riscos para os clientes, nomeadamente, o desenvolvimento de uma flebite. Foi criado, a nível institucional, um protocolo de cuidados de enfermagem ao CVP, de forma a padronizar as práticas dos enfermeiros. Objetivo: Analisar a incidência de flebite associada ao CVP antes (Grupo A) e após (Grupo B) a implementação do protocolo; caracterizar as flebites associadas ao CVP; Identificar fatores de risco que contribuem para o desenvolvimento de flebites associadas ao CVP. Métodos: Realizou-se um estudo observacional, quantitativo e descritivo, com amostras não probabilísticas por conveniência, em que cada grupo é constituído por 50 participantes. Resultados: Após a implementação do protocolo, verificou-se a diminuição na taxa de incidência de flebites de 26% para 12%, assim como decréscimo das flebites de grau 3, sendo identificadas apenas flebites de grau 1 e 2. Constatou-se, ainda, que cerca de 90% dos participantes que apresentavam flebite, estavam sob antibioterapia, nomeadamente Amoxicilina + Ácido Clavulânico e Flucloxacilina. Conclusão: O protocolo instituído poderá ter benefícios no que diz respeito à diminuição da incidência de flebites, pela uniformização de práticas com base na evidência científica, proporcionando uma melhor qualidade de cuidados e menores custos associados ao internamento hospitalar.  Polytechnic Institute of Viseu (IPV)2024-02-29info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.29352/mill0214e.33949eng1647-662X0873-3015Oliveira, Ana RitaOliveira, FilipaGomes, Isabelinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-03-07T15:22:44Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/33949Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T13:24:05.223451Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
