Resumen

Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) pose a significant challenge in healthcare, particularly those associated with the use of central venous catheters (CVCs), due to their high morbidity and mortality. This review article examines the main aspects of HAIs, focusing on the pathophysiology of CVC infections, preventive techniques, patient safety policies, and the nurse's role. Literature highlights that strategies such as hand hygiene, the use of bundles, and standardized protocols are essential to reduce infections. Nurses play a crucial role in supervising and implementing these practices, ensuring patient safety.
