abstract="OBJECTIVE: to describe how euthanasia has been approached in Brazilian scientific publications authored by nurses and to discuss about the described bioethics aspects related to euthanasia. <br><br>METHOD: this was an integrative literature review based on the BDENF, SciELO, and LILACS databases using the terms euthanasia and nursing as descriptors in complete texts in Portuguese. <br><br>RESULTS: a total of 24 articles were found, among them 6 contained complete texts; however, only 4 of them fulfilled the inclusion criteria and established consistent relationship with the subject. <br><br>CONCLUSION: the theme is little discussed in the national level by nursing researchers. The selected studies did not address only euthanasia but included the end of one's life, palliative care, dystanasia, orthothanasia, and other actors involved in the decision-making process about one's death.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
