Abstract

Objective: To identify the profile and themes of studies found in the literature about the
context of mobile pre-hospital care in Portugal and Brazil.
Method: An integrative review of five online databases was conducted in February and March
2017. Full articles in English, Spanish, and Portuguese published between 1981 and 2017
were selected for this review.
Results: Of the 54 studies included, nurses were present in 81.50%; 37% were related to the
characteristics of care, 22% to professionals, 20% to occupational risks, 17% to management,
and 4% to health education.
Conclusion: The number of articles with nurses as the main authors reached a peak in 2011.
Their topics were mostly related to the analysis of care provided by the services, and the
knowledge and performance of professionals working in the area of mobile pre-hospital care.
