Resumo: The prevention and treatment of radiotherapy-induced oral mucositis have still not been fully defined. The current study thus involved a literature search aimed at identifying preventive and therapeutic measures in relation to oral mucositis in patients submitted to radiotherapy, analyzing the level of evidence in the selected studies, identifying which indications for prevention and treatment in the literature pertain to the field of nursing, and critically analyzing the results and their implications for nursing care. This was a systematic literature survey without a metaanalysis, consulting the following databases: Bireme, Medline, CancerLit, Scirus, CAPES, Free medical journal, Highwire press, Scielo, and Medscape, from 2000 to 2005. According to observations, nursing care was capable of improving patient's quality of life, promoting education of patients, implementing and supervising oral care programs, and providing guidance on hygiene, prevention, and treatment of oral mucositis, including pain management. However, no Brazilian nursing publications were found on the subject. Research and publications focusing on nursing experience in the prevention and treatment of radiotherapy-related oral mucositis and the implications for patients and nurses are important to provide evidence-based nursing guidelines.

Neste sentido, este estudo tem como objetivos: identificar na literatura científica as medidas para prevenção e tratamento da mucosite oral em pacientes com câncer submetidos a tratamento radioterápico; analisar o nível de evidência dos estudos levantados; identificar, dentre as medidas de prevenção e de tratamentos propostos na literatura, aqueles que estão relacionados ao escopo das intervenções de enfermagem; analisar criticamente os resultados desses estudos e suas implicações para a prática de enfermagem.Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática de literatura, sem meta-análise, que utilizou as seguintes bases de dados: Bireme, Medline, Cancerlit, Scirus, Periódicos Capes, Free Medical Journal, Highwire Press, SciELO, Medscape, no recorte temporal de 2000 a 2005. Constatou-se que o enfermeiro tem a possibilidade de melhorar a qualidade de vida do paciente promovendo sua educação, implementando e supervisionando programas de cuidados orais e orientando para a higiene, a prevenção e o tratamento da mucosite oral, inclusive o manejo da dor. Não foram encontradas publicações nacionais de enfermagem sobre o tema. Considerou-se então que as pesquisas e as publicações com a experiência do enfermeiro na prevenção e no tratamento da mucosite oral, em radioterapia, e suas implicações para o paciente e o cuidado de enfermagem são de extrema necessidade e relevância para uma atuação profissional baseada em evidências e, portanto, necessitam ser realizadas.INCA2007-06-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/181510.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2007v53n2.1815Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 53 No. 2 (2007): Apr./May/June; 195-209Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 53 Núm. 2 (2007): abr./mayo/jun.; 195-209Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 53 n. 2 (2007): abr./maio/jun.; 195-2092176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1815/1099Albuquerque, Iêda Lessa de SouzaCamargo, Teresa Caldasinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:25:47Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1815Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:25:47Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
