    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-12-02) Torres Almeida, Lucia de Fatima; Cárdenas de Fernández, María Hilda
    Objectives: To evaluate the evidence on nursing interventions in patients with acute myocardial infarction in emergency units. Materials and Methods: This is a bibliographic review consisting of 10 research articles, both national and international. The search was conducted using the following databases: LIPECS, LILACS, SCIELO, MEDLINE, and COCHRANE PLUS. It is a quantitative study with a systematic and cross-sectional design. Results: Ten articles were selected, of which 40% (4) were from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, 30% (3) from England and Ireland, and 10% (1) from Argentina and Chile, respectively. The majority of the studies were randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews, with 70% coming mainly from the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. Randomized trials were found from England, the Netherlands, and the United States, accounting for 30%, and 20% were descriptive cross-sectional studies from Argentina and Brazil. The review of the analyzed articles revealed that 90% affirm that various nursing interventions reduce the risk in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Conclusions: It was observed during the development of this study that nursing interventions directed at patients with acute myocardial infarction increase knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about acute coronary syndrome.
