Abstract

Objective: to describe nursing care for the prevention of complications in pediatric critical patients with peripheral venous access. Method: Documentary descriptive. Results and conclusions: The selection of venipuncture sites in pediatric critical patients must be careful because during childhood the veins are difficult to visualize, have a smaller diameter, there is greater capillary fragility, and anatomical variations and patient conditions complicate the process. , but in general, the superficial veins of the back of the hand and the forearm of the non-dominant limb can be chosen, avoiding flexion sites, also in the leg, the saphenous antecubital area, the external jugular and superficial veins of the scalp because they are visible, palpable, they have the advantage that they do not damage the vascular tree, are well supported by the surrounding structures and allow adequate support.
