ABSTRACT
Background: In the current medical practice, central venous catheters
(CVC) are very useful; however, their use involves certain risks, which
increase morbidity and mortality, especially in newborns. The aim of this
study was to describe both the frequency of complications and survival of
CVC placed in newborns hospitalized in a third level neonatal intensive
care unit (NICU).
Methods: A descriptive, observational and prospective study was carriedout
in the NICU from the Hospital de Pediatría, Centro Médico Nacional
Siglo XXI. Demographic, perinatal and CVC variables were recorded.
Results: We included 152 CVCs, which were inserted in 123 newborns.
For the CVC insertion, the puncture technique [percutaneous and subclavian]
was used in 56.6 % (
n = 86). There was at least one complication
in 48.7 %.(
n = 74). The most frequent complications were colonization
32.4 % (
n = 24) and CVC-related bacteremia in 27 % (
n = 20). Survival
probability for CVC was 93.4 % at 10 days and 91.4 % at 17 days. Kaplan–
Meier survival analysis demonstrated significantly lower survival probability
for non-central catheters.
Conclusions: Most of CVC complications occurred within the first two
weeks after these CVC were installed. Infectious complications were the
most frequent.
