contents Prevalence of infection in patients with temporary catheter for hemodialysis in a teaching hospital Palmiane de Rezende Ramim Borges João Bedendo Medicina Kidney failure renal dialysis central venous catheterization This study aimed to determine the prevalence of infection related to the provisional catheter for hemodialysis in a teaching hospital and evaluate the risk factors associated with these infections. A cross-sectional study analyzed by desc riptive statistics and parametric te sts. It was found that out of 129 patients, 48.8 % had catheter-related infection in he modialysis, 65 % were male, 33.3 % were 60 years old and over, and 88 % of patients were admitted to intens ive care unit. The prevalence of infection in this group was high, and the vast majority of diagnoses of infection were empirical. Given this, it is suggested to establish the routine culture of the ca theter tip in all cases of suspecte d catheter infection to improve the quality of patient care, and the relentless pursuit of the causes that trigger the infection process in line with good practice from across the healthcare team. 2017 artículo científico 1679-9291 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=307252895010 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3072/307252895010/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3072/307252895010/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3072/307252895010/307252895010.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3072/307252895010/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3072 Acta Scientiarum.
