Science and Education Research

Vaccination is constituted as a significant historic gain for the population and one of the most important weapons used in the context of public health for the control, prevention, and eradication of communicable diseases. Therefore, the anchored knowledge of the professionals responsible for the cold chain in the local instances/vaccine rooms has become one of the most important in public health currently. In this sense, the objective is to evaluate, through the literary process, the knowledge of active nursing staff in vaccine rooms. Aiming this, a survey has been carried out using the literary bases of SciELO and VHL, with a total of ten articles selected for the final composition. Thus, clearly the entirety of the selected studies points to a fragmentation of knowledge experienced by nursing professionals about the vaccination process, as well as a lack of training and updates on the subject.
