Resumo / AbstractObjective: Central venous access is an essential strategy when treating oncology patients due to the frequent need to administer chemotherapy or collect blood specimens. However, there is a considerable risk of complications. The aim of this research was to observe the nature and incidence of complications associated with central venous access and fully implanted catheters in pediatric oncology patients, as well as their association with clinical and laboratory findings. Methodology: In this observational, retrospective and descriptive study, the data was collected from medical records of patients aged 0 to 14 years in a referral hospital in the extreme south of Santa Catarina and were analysed using the SPSS platform. Results: From a total of 145 central catheters, 90 (62,06%) complications were identified, 21 (14,5%) infections, where 15 (25,4%) occurred in leukopenic patients (p= 0,016) and 18 (27,7%) in patients with thrombocytopenia (p<0,001). Six patients (4,1%) developed hematomas at the injection site, all of which occurred in thrombocytopenic patients (p=0,008). Among mechanical complications related to placement, 2 patients (1,4%) developed pneumothorax, 14 (9,7%) hemorrhages, 2 (1,4%) catheter breaks and 5 (3,4%) catheter malpositioning. Conclusion: In this study it was observed that the most frequent complications are of a mechanical and infectious nature. A positive correlation was found between infection, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia. Also, it is worth mentioning how a significant number of thrombocytopenic patients developed hematomas.pt_BR
