The exclusion criteria were studies literature review, duplicates, letter to the editor, editorials, abstracts published in event annals, personal opinions, dissertations, theses, book chapters and institutional manuals. Results: 05 articles were selected, all publications of Brazilian origin. After full reading and analysis of the studies, two thematic categories were constructed, they are: Experiences of the nursing team in the process of death and dying of newborns and impacts of neonatal losses for the nursing team. Conclusion: neonatal death is a complex phenomenon and, like death, it depends on the cultural aspects where it occurs. Nursing professionals who work in newborn care can face numerous challenges. In this context, they lack training to provide care that is sensitive to the needs of patients and their families, without neglecting their psychological and emotional aspects.
