Sumario:OBJECTIVES: to identify in the literature and summarize nursing care in a hospital environment directed to patients who suffered burns. METHODS: a scoping review, according to the JBI Reviewers’ Manual recommendations, with a search in the MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus databases and in the Virtual Health Library portal, through articles published between 2016 and December 2021. RESULTS: of the total 419 articles found, nine were selected for analysis. The main care measures identified were changing dressings and types of coverage, vital sign control, non-pharmacological techniques for pain relief and opioid reduction. CONCLUSIONS: the complexity of burn care requires constant updating by the nursing team. Keeping it prepared to carry out the best nursing care practices for burn patients will promote adequate care, patient recovery and reduction of possible harm.
