- Abstract
To evaluate the types of venous catheters used by hospitalized adolescents. Descriptive, documentary, quantitative study, developed in an adolescent health ward. The sample consisted of 30 medical records of adolescents undergoing venous catheterization. Data were analyzed using simple descriptive statistics. Of the 85 inserted devices, 78.8% (n=67) were peripheral intravenous catheters and 9.4% (n=8) peripherally inserted central catheters. As for the duration of therapy, 85.9% (n=73) were aimed at those with a time <21 days. Regarding pharmacology, 35.29% (n=30) refer to antibiotic therapy, followed by chemotherapy in 17.65% (n=15), intravenous hydration with 16.47% (n=14) and pulse therapy with 16. 47% (n=14). Despite the comorbidities that often lead to the association of drugs, which promote capillary fragility, and their administration time, the main choice for vascular access was Peripheral Intravenous Catheters.
