Popis: The objectives were to assess the incidence of complications related to the use of the first PIC in newborns and to identify risk factors associated to it. This is a prospective observational cohort, with a quantitative approach; it was developed at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of a teaching hospital in a capital city at the South of Brazil; the data collection occurred between February and June of 2013. It totalized 134 PICs. The incidence of complications was 41.01%. Females (p=0.0152) presented the lowest risk to develop complication and, it occurs higher risk to develop complication (p=0.0296) in the first 48 hours after puncture. The evidence resulting from this study underlies a quality care, benefiting the study population.
