Objective:
To map the current status of parameters and tools to assess quality of care related to peripheral venous catheter use in adults.
Methods:
Scoping review, conducted in 2022 in the MEDLINE, LILACS, CINAHL and SCOPUS databases and with a publication time limit from 2013 to 2022.
Results:
The sample consisted of 15 articles, summarized in the following categories: Indication, documentation and registration, coverage assessment, connection, stabilization and signs and symptoms inherent to the catheter. The use of a complete instrument, with the domains observed in this review, may have a positive impact on a more effective and safe clinical practice.
Conclusions:
The present review mapped the evidence about the insertion and maintenance of peripheral venous catheters that can be improved with training of good practices and the quality of the team, regarding the use of tools, materials and instruments for the evaluation of care.
