Abstract

This is a bibliographic study on bone marrow transplantation emphasizing nurses actions, reviewed from publishings of the last ten years. The organization of informations allowed authors to identify that for performing a transplant it would be necessary to have an adequate infrastructure, specialized human resources and operational resources for the assistance to be feasible. It was determined that nurses actions in this procedure are required in all stages of care, differently in each phase, and preferentially individualized and integral in a maximum ratio of one nurse for two patients.
