RESUMO
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Faced with a pandemic, all healthcare actions need to reflect best practices, in order to avoid high transmissibility, complications and even hospitalizations. For hospital environments, the products recommended and authorized by regulatory institutions for environmental cleaning and disinfection need to be highly effective. OBJECTIVE: To identify, systematically evaluate and summarize the best available scientific evidence on environmental cleaning to prevent COVID-19 infection. DESIGN AND SETTING: A systematic review of studies analyzing cleaning products that inactivate coronavirus, conducted within the evidence-based health program of a federal university in São Paulo (SP), Brazil. METHODS: A systematic search of the relevant literature was conducted in the PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CINAHL and LILACS databases, for articles published up to May 27, 2020, relating to studies evaluating cleaning products that inactivate coronavirus in the environment. RESULTS: Seven studies were selected. These analyzed use of 70% alcohol, detergent, detergent containing iodine, household bleach, sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, chlorine dioxide, glutaraldehyde, ultraviolet irradiation and plasma air purifier. The effectiveness of treating sewage with sodium hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide was also evaluated. CONCLUSION: Disinfection of environments, especially those in ordinary use, such as bathrooms, needs to be done constantly. Viral inactivation was achieved using chlorine-based disinfectants, alcohol, detergents, glutaraldehyde, iodine-containing detergents, hydrogen peroxide compounds and household bleaches. Alcohol showed efficient immediate activity. In sewage, sodium hypochlorite had better action than chlorine dioxide. REGISTRATION NUMBER: DOI: 10.17605/OSF.IO/YC5P4 in the Open Science Framework.

Objetivo: demonstrar o processo de implantação dos três bundles em unidade de terapia intensiva, relacionados à prevenção de pneumonia associada à ventilação mecânica, infecção de corrente sanguínea associada ao cateterismo venoso central e infecção do trato urinário associado à sondagem vesical de demora; oferecendo subsídios para esta prática. Método: foi realizada a formação de um Comitê Multiprofissional para a elaboração dos procedimentos, em seguida feita a validação dos procedimentos, e por último, realizada a implantação destes nas unidades de terapia intensiva. Resultados:houve diminuição das infecções ao paciente após a implantação das medidas preventivas,com a otimização da qualidade e segurança. Considerações finais: o apoio diretivo,disponibilização de recursos e engajamento dos enfermeiros gestores foram essenciais para o êxito na implantação dos bundles.
Aim: to demonstrate the process of the three bundles in intensive united care, related to the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia, bloodstream infections associated with central venous catheterization and urinary tract infection associated with indwelling catheter; offering support for this practice. Method: a multidisciplinary committee to draft the procedures was formed, then procedure were validated, and finally these were implemented intensive care units. Results: there was a decrease of infections to patients after the implementation of preventive measures, with optimization of quality and safety. Final considerations: the directive support,availability of resources and engagement of nurse managers were essential for the successful deployment of bundles.
