Chronic renal patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is often prone to various infections. The purpose of this article is to show through scientific articles, the best protocol of prophylaxis in relation to the peritoneal catheter infections. It presents 02 (two) therapeutic prophylactic administration of povidone-iodine 3 times per week with dry dressing over the catheter and another protocol that recommends daily washing with soap and water. Supported by theoretical conclusions and based on scientific evidence that the best option for disinfection is the application of povidone-iodine
