Systematic literature review with 3 steps. 1) Primary search at CINHAL and MEDLINE. 2) A broader search, using the same keywords and search terms in the remaining database of the EBSCOHost platform. 3) Search the bibliographic references of the ed articles. The ed studies were published between 2014 and 2019. Five articles were ed. The nurses\' perception reveal that the work environment, teamwork and matters related to the leadership of hierarchical superiors are fundamental factors to improve the quality of care provided and patient safety.
