Introdução: Diante das particularidades e desafios no manejo e tratamento de feridas em recém-nascidos torna-se importante para o enfermeiro conhecer, indicar e avaliar a eficácia e segurança das coberturas e produtos, inclusive na análise dos produtos para o público neonatal. Objetivo: Identificar na literatura as principais coberturas e produtos utilizados no tratamento de feridas em recém-nascidos. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura, com artigos publicados entre os anos de 2018 a 2022, que abordaram os temas de coberturas e produtos utilizados no tratamento de feridas em recém-nascidos. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de consulta na Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde e Scientific Eletronic Library Online. Foram utilizados os descritores “newborn”, “wounds” e “bandage”. A análise foi realizada conforme a estratégia PICO e estruturados pelo PRISMA. Resultados: Diante dos achados foi possível identificar 13 artigos que abordavam produtos e coberturas destinados ao tratamento de feridas em neonatos. Foram encontrados 14 tipos de coberturas/produtos e dispositivos que utilizam a terapia por pressão negativa. Considerações finais: A literatura indica o uso de produtos e cobertura com princípios passivos, ativos e biológicos para o tratamento de feridas em neonatos, inclusive no prematuro, valendo destacar a importância em considerar o uso seguro de coberturas adequadas a esse público.

“…More so, in order to improve the care of infants with surgical wounds, a reliable and valid tool is needed to support research that advances understanding of surgical wounds. Techniques such as use of negative pressure wound therapy that has been reported to be successful in case reports and case series would presumably benefit from a tool that facilitates multi-institutional research collaboration 16–18…”

“…Techniques such as use of negative pressure wound therapy that has been reported to be successful in case reports and case series would presumably benefit from a tool that facilitates multi-institutional research collaboration. [16][17][18] Review of the literature, however, fails to demonstrate the existence of a validated tool for surgical wounds for infants. Wound assessment tools, however, do exist in the adult literature.…”

BACKGROUND AND SIGNIFICANCESurgical wounds and their management are a critical part of the care of hospitalized infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). [1][2][3] Multiple factors are associated with wound complications, such as the underlying pathology; nature, length, and number of surgical procedures; preoperative stay in an NICU (compared with a neonatal or surgical ward); occurrence of perioperative sepsis; provision of perioperative blood transfusions; and gestational age of the patient. [4][5][6][7][8] The underlying causes for many of these factors have

“…There is still a need for further studies to address questions regarding the effectiveness of using ciNPT and its safety when applied in various patient populations [28]. There is also a need for further studies that involve a more detailed comparison between the efficacy of ciNPT and standard therapies on patient outcomes and wound healing.…”

Surgical site occurrences (SSOs) are common in patients undergoing operative procedures, especially in the form of surgical site infections (SSIs). Multiple studies show that obesity, tobacco use, prolonged surgical time, and diabetes mellitus are the major risk factors for SSIs. SSIs increase healthcare costs and often result in morbidity. Many surgeons are currently using closed-incision negative pressure therapy (ciNPT) to counter SSIs. This method makes it easier for them to manage closed and surgical incisions. This technique has already been applied in the plastic surgery field. This study discusses how the use of ciNPT is helping surgeons to reduce complications related to SSOs. The technique has been reported to minimize the rate of reoperations, readmissions, and other wound-related complications. Using ciNPT with novel dressing has proved to be a significantly effective clinical intervention method in managing clean and closed wounds. The novel dressing protects the incision from external contamination and minimizes lateral tension.
