Abstract

Objective: To analyze the knowledge and practice of nurses in the aspiration of secretions from critical patients. Method: Descriptive documentary. Results and Conclusions: It was possible to highlight and several authors agreed that for the aspiration of secretions there are two suction mechanisms which are an open system and a closed system, the latter is the most appreciated by the nursing staff since the suction probe is coupled to the suctioner and is not directly manipulated by the nurse, and thus avoids the spread of respiratory diseases, This system is the most used in patients with COVID and pneumonia in intensive care areas. These two systems should be socialized to all personnel working in the ICU through training to contribute to the sequential steps of the technique, avoiding delays that lead to complications and put the patient's life at risk.
