Objective: To identify in the literature the implications of the 2019 Corona Virus Disease pandemic on Primary Health Care. Method: Integrative literature review performed in April 2021 using the indexed descriptors “Primary Health Care”, “Coronavirus” and “Pandemics”, from Health Sciences Descriptors and Medical Subject Headings.

Results: Twenty-five studies out of 768 publications were selected. They point to changes in work demands related to materials, logistics, standard of care, social distancing and healthcare surveillance and monitoring strategies used in Primary Health Care in the 2019 Coronavirus Disease pandemic. Conclusions: Initiatives aimed at creating surveillance and monitoring strategies in Primary Health Care for coping with the 2019 Coronavirus Disease pandemic are shown.
