Abstract
Objective: To identify relevant factors in international scientific production regarding the importance of military nursing in the face of major tragedies. Methods: This is a systematic review of the literature, with a quantitative approach and descriptive character, registered in the Prospero International Base (CRD42023440317), carried out in the database (PubMed), with the research carried out by the Medical Subject Headings (MESH): military nursing; military nursing AND military nursing/history; military health AND military nursing and military nursing AND disasters. To construct the article, the PRISMA script/method was used. At the beginning of the research, 1,128 articles were found on the topic and after reading and applying the exclusion criteria, only 28 were selected, excluding 1,100 articles. Results: It is evident that since the beginning of wars and catastrophes, military nursing has been present, showing the need for assistance in crisis scenarios, resulting in a need to adapt in adverse situations. Final considerations: Psychological support should be prioritized for these professionals before they face complex situations, as it poses a high risk to mental health and a probable risk to their physical integrity, as they are inserted in stressful contexts.
