This study aimed to describe scientific literature production on the subject of hospital costs, focussing on the materials used in nursing in the hospital environment. The method used was a bibliographic review of publications from 2000 to 2009 in electronic databases; 42 works were found, of which only three fulfilled the research selection criteria. The review highlighted the low bibliographic production referring to costs in the area of Nursing. As a conclusion, one may observe that in capitalist practice, professionals who generate greater profits are sought after by the market; still, the nurse, by accepting managerial knowledge which permits the conscious use of materials and minimizes waste, can become an indispensable member in the hospital context.
