Relevant actions in the control of surgical site infections in neurosurgery: an integrative review

Abstract

Aim: to identify the knowledge produced and published regarding the most  relevant  actions  in  the  control  of  surgical  site  infections  (SSI)  in  neurosurgery amenable to intervention. Method: integrative review of articles published in Portuguese, English and Spanish in MEDLINE, CINAHL, LILACS, through the VHL, CAPES and PUBMED portals.  Results:  23  publications  were  selected  and  analyzed,  grouped  into  categories focusing  on  actions  taken  before,  during  and  after  surgery and  surgical  surveillance. Discussion: the non-operation of trichotomy, correct antibiotic prophylaxis, rigid aseptic technique  in  surgery,  care  with  ventricular  derivations,  curative  and  postoperative surgical  surveillance  were  considered  relevant  in  the  control  of  SSI  in  neurosurgery  in the studies found. Conclusion: The evidence found will help to direct the actions of HICC nurses in the control of SSI in neurosurgery.
