Description
Summary:http://dx.doi.org/10.5902/217976926212 Objective: characterize the scientific production about the history of brazilian nursing and its professional performance during World War II. Method: bibliometric study which employed, as documentary sources, research found in a search using the descriptors “History of Nursing” and “World War II” at LILACS, SciELO, Medline, PeriEnf. Supported by electronic spreadsheet, were performed on simple and relative frequency the following variables: indexing, language, author, descriptors, vehicle of publication, year, method, academic affiliation, classification. Results: found 15 items with the participation of 11 different authors. "History of Nursing" was the most employed descriptor and 73.3% of the studies were related to history of institutions. Conclusions: despite research institutions located in Rio de Janeiro are the most productive pole of studies on the subject, there are still gaps in knowledge about the performance of Brazilian Nursing during World War II.
