Abstract
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a Gram-negative bacteria. The treatment of infections from this bacteria in children is more challenging due to limited appropriate antibiotic use in this specific group (Akturk et al., 2016). Evidence-based research is necessary to understand best practice methods for the decontamination of needle-free devices (Kelly et al., 2017) such as network cables intravenous therapy newborn access (Polifix® - B Braun). It is necessary to verify the best method to disinfect needleless connectors, by developing evidence-based research.
