  • Introduction: The role of nurses in cardiopulmonary arrest in pregnant women is extremely important, given that cardiopulmonary arrest in pregnant women is a rare occurrence and requires an immediate and effective approach and that nurses are often the protagonists in this situation. To identify the role of nurses in cardiopulmonary arrest in pregnant women through a literature search. Method: The method is based on a descriptive, non- randomized, quantitative and exploratory data analysis study. The subject descriptors were taken from the Virtual Health Library, where the following were found: "Cardiopulmonary resuscitation", "Pregnant women" and "Heart arrest". Results: 14 articles were found from the last 5 years, between 2018 and 2022 and in the databases (MEDLINE, LILACS and BDENF). Little is said about the role of nurses in dealing with cardiac arrest in pregnant women, as they are the professionals who are most often at the forefront of hospital care. Conclusion: it was noted that the material found deals little with the role of nursing as a major professional in the event, and given that it is their professional responsibility to conduct themselves in this situation, there is a need for more study materials, training and greater dissemination of techniques as essential and irrevocable bases for saving lives.
