Objective: To identify the iatrogens involved in wound care. Methodology: an integrative literature review study, whose search was based on the Virtual Health Library, the Scientific Electronic Library Online and the Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences through the use of the controlled descriptors “wounds” OR “ wounds and injuries” AND “dressings”, “wounds” OR “wounds and injuries” AND “treatment”, ”wounds” OR “wounds and injuries” AND “infection”, “iatrogenics” AND “wounds and injuries”. Results: 17 articles were analyzed. The main iatrogens found were Complications in the wound: infection, dehiscence and delay in healing, evaluation and selection of products for the treatment, failure to indicate complementary therapies, use of therapy without scientific evidence, lack of autonomy for the nursing performance in the treatment of wounds. Conclusion: No studies were found with emphasis on iatrogenics. The iatrogenic events identified in this study lead us to reflect that failures in the treatment proposed by the health professional can corroborate the chronicity of wounds. The survey of these iatrogenies can bring contributions to improve the training of nurses and their training in service, in order to reduce the incidence of these problems and increase the safety and quality of care. Descriptors: Iatrogenic Disease, Wounds and Injuries, Nursing.
