- Abstract
The study aimed to survey national and international scientific literature on the impact and management of luminosity for premature newborns admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. By searching the Virtual Health Library, 89 articles were selected, 15 of which constituted the final sample. The study showed that although there is a recognition that ambient light interferes with the sleep/rest pattern, negatively impacting the development of preterm infants, measures to minimize the effect of light are not valued or applied in practice. Factors such as physical structure, cost, unit design and re-adaptation of professional conduct are described as barriers to proper light management. On the other hand, the offer of cycled light using covers on the incubators; reduction of the direct light on the baby's eyes and the grouping of care have positive impact on this management.
