- Abstract
Objective: To identify the actions taken by nurses for the prevention and early detection of breast cancer in the Family Health Strategy. Method: This is an integrative review whose search for articles was carried out in the LILACS, BDENF and SciELO databases, with original articles from the last five years being explored. Results: 182 articles were found. After applying the selection criteria, 10 articles were obtained for analysis, with a predominance of cross-sectional studies with a qualitative approach. It was noticed that the nurses, through nursing consultations, clinical examination and ordering tests, are essentials for prevention and early detection of breast cancer. Educational actions are also done, such as guidelines for self-examination and reduction of modifiable risk factors. Conclusion: The role of nurses in the prevention and detection of breast cancer is broad. However, there is a need for permanent education of these professionals, in addition to protocols that expand their autonomy.
