Abstract
Objectives: to analyze the opinions issued by Brazilian nursing councils regarding peripheral intravenous puncture in the external jugular vein. Methods: this is a qualitative study conducted through virtual access to opinions available on the official websites of the Federal Nursing Council and the Regional Nursing Councils. The technical opinions were subjected to factorial analysis based on data processing using the IRAMUTEQ® software. Results: thirteen opinions published between 2009 and 2022 were analyzed, highlighting that the procedure is exclusive to nurses. Care-related, ethical, and legal aspects were identified. Final Considerations: the opinions issued by Brazilian nursing councils regarding peripheral intravenous puncture in the external jugular vein were analyzed and indicate that nurses must demonstrate technical-scientific competence to perform the procedure. Furthermore, the importance of complying with the legal and ethical regulations governing professional nursing practice is emphasized.Keywords
