Urgency and Emergency are different situations, where the most appropriate care is prioritized. An emergency is a process in which life is at imminent risk, requiring immediate diagnosis and treatment. Among the various procedures to aid the diagnosis of CVD is the Electrocardiogram (ECG), which records cardiac electrical activity in a non-invasive, painless, simple, low-cost way, without direct risk to the patient, used in outpatient clinics and emergency units. and emergency. The interpretation of the record identifies changes in the myocardium such as injury, ischemia or infarction; enlargement of the atrial or ventricular chambers; cardiac rhythm disturbances, and also extracardiac alterations such as metabolic diseases; electrolyte changes; toxic or therapeutic effects of drugs and others. According to the Regional Nursing Councils, the execution of this examination is not exclusive to any professional, and it is favorable that the examination be carried out by any of the members of the nursing team, provided that they are qualified and trained for this function. The Regional Nursing Councils make it clear that it is the responsibility of the nursing management to train the nursing team professionals to correctly perform the exam. The present study aimed to analyze scientific productions on the knowledge of nurses, regarding the interpretation of the electrocardiogram, not only in urgent and emergency situations, but also in situations of coronary pathologies. The study was carried out through a bibliographic survey using the Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS), SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online or Online Scientific Electronic Library) databases, inserted in the Virtual Health Library (BVS), using the keywords Coronary Diseases, Electrocardiogram, Nursing Practices, Urgency and Emergency. The importance of quick interpretation by nurses in the emergency room is of paramount importance, especially in situations of Acute Myocardial Infarction, which is a factor that demands several actions, such as requesting exams, agile execution and quick interpretation. For the correct and quick interpretation of the ECG, the nursing professional must have knowledge in anatomy, physiology and cardiac pathologies, based on clinical evidence and theories about cardiological pathologies. Through the research and readings carried out, it is possible to state that it is essential to have knowledge about the correct aspects for the interpretation of the ECG, with a great need to provide training to improve the health team (especially nurses), with emphasis on electrophysiological concepts, as low levels of knowledge regarding the details of the ECG were observed.
