- Abstract
Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is a clinical condition characterized by the accumulation of bilirubin in the neonate's organism and can cause serious sequelae when not treated. One of the therapeutic means consists of phototherapy, a treatment that requires specific care to prevent iatrogenesis. Nursing plays an important role in this care, as it remains 24 hours in the follow-up of cases, preventing complications and contributing to the effectiveness of therapy. Therefore, in this study the objective was to investigate, through an integrative literature review, the scientific evidence on nursing care for newborns undergoing phototherapy. For this, the databases were searched: BDENF, LILACS, MEDLINE and SCIELO. In the formulation of the search strategy, health descriptors combined with each other through the Boolean operators AND and OR were used. Forty articles were found that, after using pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, four remained in the sample. The review revealed that nursing care positively influences adherence and treatment results.
