The Peripheral Insertion Central Catheter (PICC) This study had as objective to analyze the use of the Peripheral Insertion Central Catheter (PICC) in newborns of a public neonatal unit in Fortaleza-Ce. It is an exploratory-descriptive study, conducted from June 2002 to June 2003. The data were collected through a form. It was verified in the results that 96.1% of the newborns had gestational age lower than 37 weeks, with weight average of 1,860g. The basilic vein was the most used with 30.7%. The most frequent complication was the breaking of the catheter with 19.2%. We concluded that the use of PICC comes to enhance the quality of the assistance given in relation to the intravenous therapy in the newborns that need this therapy. |
