[Septicemias related to intravascular catheters].

Catheter-Related Septicemia (SRC) is an important health problem which depends on, to a large degree, a nurse's care, both concerning the insertion technique employed in cases involving peripheral catheters and centers of peripheral access (PICC) and concerning the manipulation, maintenance and treatment applied no matter what type of catheter is used. The challenge for nurses consists in minimizing the number of complications which occur. Catheter-Related Septicemia can be prevented. In order for this prevention to occur, we must unify our criteria and exercise the utmost care in carrying out our assistance to patients. Therefore, strict asepsis while inserting catheters and manipulating blood vessels acquires maximum importance.
