Abstract
Objective: Revisar na literatura científica as formas corretas de transporte do paciente crítico no ambiente intra hospitalar, investigando os fatores que interferem nesse processo. Method: This is a literature review descriptive nature, with a qualitative approach. Result: We used 17 articles selected from SciELO, LILACS, BDENF and EBSCO databases between 2012 and 2017, as well as major institutions on the field, such as the Ministry of Health and Education (EBSERH). Final considerations: The factors that interfere in the in-hospital transport of the critical patient are related to the incomplete participation of the multiprofessional team, equipment failure, communication difficulties between origin and destination teams, and infrastructure-related problems.
