Characterization of infections in children with Tracheostomy Tube: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Currently, health professionals face the management of artificial airways in pediatric groups, this requires delicate care and a lot of attention to detect, establish and manage pressing situations, which is why there is a greater risk of tracheo-pulmonary bacterial infections.
Objective: To identify the number of scientific publications on infections in pediatric patients with tracheotomy tubes.
Design: Systematic review of the literature.
Method: A systematic review of the literature was carried out between the years 2015-2020 in Elsevier, PubMed, Google Academic and Scielo databases, taking into account the inclusion criteria of the population aged 0-15 years in the years 2015-2020. The amount of existing literature on the subject was considered an important limitation.
Results: From 258 articles distributed in the databases, 21 articles were selected that met the inclusion criteria.
Conclusions: Although there are currently clinical criteria, risk factors and laboratory tests associated with infections of the post-tracheotomy tube in pediatric patients, further research is required to define clinical guidelines for management in medical decision-making.
