| Sumario: | Objective: to analyze and synthesize the knowledge produced regarding nursing care for hospitalized elderly at the end of life. Method: Integrative literature review carried out in PubMed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health (CINAHL), Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) databases. The studies addressed palliative care in the elderly published between 2005 and 2021. Iramuteq (Interface de R pour les Analyses Multidimensionnelles de Textes et de Questionnaires) software was used for research summarization and synthesis. Results: 22 articles were selected, and after analysis they were categorized into: Family support by nurses in palliative care; Training and impacts on nursing care in palliative care; Ethics in research involving elderly patients in palliative care and their families; Importance of effective communication in palliative care; and Gradual decline in health in the elderly and the management of symptoms by nursing. Conclusion: the synthesis helped to understand the importance of evidence in palliative care and that nursing is part of this care process. |
