Abstract

Objective: to verify the role of nursing technicians in Adult Intensive Care Units in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Methodology: descriptive, qualitative study, carried out with nursing technicians from the Adult Intensive Care Unit of a public hospital in Porto Alegre. Data collection was performed through recorded interviews, following a semi-structured script. Data were analyzed from the perspective of Minayo's theme. Results: 40 nursing technicians participated. Four categories emerged: continuing education on ventilator-associated pneumonia; role of the nursing technician in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia; items that make up the prevention bundle; weaknesses in the deployment of the bundle. Final considerations: participants know the prevention measures, recognize their importance and implement them directly and indirectly. The team uses its own mnemonic to memorize the bundle's items.
