Abstract
Objective: To review the current literature to understand the benefits of using ultrasound in central venous puncture and to evaluate its clinical and economic implications. Methods: This is a descriptive literature review study that aims to analyze the impact of ultrasound in performing stroke. It consisted of selecting articles published between 2016 and 2024, available in databases such as MEDLINE, SciELO and LILACS. Articles in Portuguese and English that addressed the efficacy and safety of the ultrasound technique in stroke were included, excluding letters, theses and conference abstracts. Statistical analysis is not applicable because this is a narrative review. Results: The results will be evaluated through qualitative analysis of the selected studies, considering the puncture success rate, procedure time and reduction of complications due to increased safety and efficacy of the US procedure, in addition to the reduction of hospital costs associated with preventable complications. Final considerations: The review will provide a comprehensive view of the effectiveness of ultrasound in central venous access and may support future clinical guidelines and training.
