Objective: to describe the use of hypodermoclysis in unconventional pediatric treatments.
Method: an integrative review, with sampling period from 2010 to 2018, in five databases.
Two independent reviewers selected the articles. Next, an evaluation of the level of evidence
was performed, according to the Joanna Briggs Institute.
Results: Six international articles were selected, with levels of evidence 1 and 3. The
unconventional diseases and situations for treatment via hypodermoclysis were: polyarticular
juvenile idiopathic arthritis; prevention of hyponatremia during fluid restriction; sedation in
dental treatment; rheumatic disorders; antibiotic therapy and refractory pulmonary arterial
hypertension.
Conclusion: the procedure is an effective and safe option for the administration of medications
in children, justified due to the minimization of pain intensity and the protection of the child,
family and nursing staff from stress. However, more research is needed to substantiate it
scientifically, and for its implementation in the professional practice.
