Abstract

Objective: To identify in the nursing literature the health care systems used by individuals
going through myocardial infarction.
Method: Integrative review conducted in five national and international databases from 2007
to 2017. In the review, 398 studies were identified and 13 were analyzed according to the
classification of the health care systems into formal and informal.
Results: Health care was impacted by values, beliefs and social norms constructed throughout
the lives of the individuals, and which guide the search for different health care systems
during the acute episode of infarction, with emphasis to the informal system structured by the
individuals’ families and community.
Conclusion: The understanding of health care systems by nursing professionals facilitates the
elaboration of educational health actions and the management of care to patients going
through myocardial infarction.
