Abstract

THE STUDY AIMED TO ANALYZE EVIDENCE AVAILABLE IN THE LITERATURE ABOUT THE ROLE OF NURSES IN PREVENTING TEENAGE PREGNANCY AGAINST THE FAMILY HEALTH STRATEGY (FHS), FOCUSING ON THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS PROFESSIONAL IN PREVENTIVE ACTIONS AND PRIMARY CARE. THE METHODOLOGY USED WAS AN INTEGRATIVE LITERATURE REVIEW COVERING THE PERIOD FROM 2011 TO 2019. FOR THE SEARCH WE USED THE FOLLOWING DATABASES: SCIELO (SCIENTIFIC ELECTRONINIC ONLINE), BIREME (REGIONAL LIBRARY OF MEDICINE) AND NURSING DATABASES (BDENF) . THE SELECTION CRITERIA WERE: FULL PAPERS PUBLISHED IN 2011 TO 2019 IN PORTUGUESE THAT SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSED THE PROPOSED THEME. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: INCOMPLETE ARTICLES, MONOGRAPHS, THESES AND DISSERTATIONS. THE ANALYZED RESULTS SHOW THAT THE MAIN ROLE OF NURSES IN THE PREVENTION OF TEENAGE PREGNANCY AGAINST THE FHS IS AS A HEALTH EDUCATOR AND THE IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING HEALTH PROFESSIONALS IN THE PREVENTION OF TEENAGE PREGNANCY, THROUGH EDUCATIONAL ACTIONS WHOSE CONTENT IS TO INFORM ADOLESCENTS. ABOUT THE RISKS AND HARMS OF AN UNWANTED PREGNANCY, AS WELL AS THE PREVENTIVE MEASURES AND PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID SUCH FACT. IT IS ALSO CONCLUDED THAT PREVENTION AND AWARENESS ARE CONSIDERED BY NURSES A SOCIAL CHALLENGE, MAINLY DUE TO THE LACK OF MANAGEMENT OF CONTINUING EDUCATION DIRECTED TO THE EDUCATION OF ADOLESCENTS AND THE TRAINING OF HEALTH PROFESSIONALS IN THE FHS WITH THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE OF SERVING THIS TARGET AUDIENCE.
