Abstract

Objective

To identify the scientific literature on the role of the burnout syndrome in the nursing team in neonatal intensive care units and to seek evidence of alternatives that minimize and/or solve their effects.

Methods

Four articles were included in the study. It is observed that the studies on the subject in the last ten years are scarce and demonstrate the prevalence of the burnout syndrome in the nursing team in neonatal intensive care units.

Conclusion

It is necessary to carry out research that provide scientific evidence that address alternatives to improve and/or solve the signs of professional burnout.
