The aim of this article is to describe and analyze the theoretical approaches to nursing that have been used for research on adherence to treatment in people with cardiovascular diseases. For this, a descriptive integrative review is carried out between the years 2005 - 2018 in which 27 original articles are included, review, master's thesis and doctorate in nursing taking into account the descriptors adherence to treatment, nursing theories and cardiovascular health. As a result, 4 nursing theories that have been worked on in relation to adherence to treatment were identified: Deliberative Nursing Process Theory, Theory of Self-efficacy, Theory of Self-Care and Theory of Self-Care in Cardiac Failure; evidencing in literature the predominance of descriptive, methodological and intervention studies using these theoretical approaches. It can be concluded that the theoretical frameworks of nursing have allowed the investigative advance in the adherence of this population, however, with the evolution of knowledge it is required to explore other situational theoretical approaches or derived from the practice.
