Objective: Identify the factors co-responsible for infection related to external ventricular shunt (EVS). Method: This is a retrospective study with quantitative data analysis developed at the Medical Archive Service of a public hospital which is a reference in neurosurgery in Pernambuco, Brazil. The sample consisted of 140 patients who underwent the insertion of external ventricular shunt. Data were collected through a semi-structured questionnaire and analyzed using the software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), version 13.0. Results: Predominance of males (39,7%); age between 20 and 39 years (52%); length of hospital stay over 60 days (72,7%); multiple EVS placed (100%); length of EVS use over 30 days (96,2%). Conclusion: Statistical significance for the factors: prolonged length of hospital stay; number of EVS placed; length of EVS use; and the development of infection. Nursing actions are emerging and they're aimed at ensuring patient safety in the hospital environment.... weniger
