Abstract

MOLINA, Joaquín León; HELLIN GIL, M Fuensanta  and  CORPA MOLINA, Eva Abad. Bibliographic review on the historical memory of previous pandemics in nursing reviews on COVID-19: a secularly documented reality. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2021, vol.20, n.63, pp.622-643.  Epub Aug 02, 2021. ISSN 1695-6141.  https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/eglobal.456511.

Introduction

Reviews for COVID-19 should reflect historical antecedents from previous pandemics.

Objective:

We plan to map the content of recent reviews in the nursing area on COVID-19 to see if it refers to health crises due to epidemics and infectious diseases.

Methodology:

Descriptive narrative review. The Science Web, PubMed and Lilacs were consulted to identify the reviews; The content of the documents was consulted to detect the presence of descriptors and terms related to pandemics prior to the 21st century of humanity, taking into account the inclusion criteria and objectives of the study.

Results

Relevant reviews were found only in 11 documents of the 192 identified.

Conclusions

There may be reluctance to use documentation published more than a century ago; However, it would be advisable not to lose the historical memory of pandemic crises that humanity has suffered for millennia

Keywords : Pandemics; Epidemics; History; Ancient History.
