The birth of a child is one of the most wonderful moments of life. Few experiences can be compared with this event. Newborns have surprising abilities and, nevertheless, depend completely on others in all aspects: food, heat and well-being.

If there are signs indicating that there is a problem, the treatment indicated in the delivery room itself can be administered. The doctor or midwife and other members of the health care team work together to help the baby remove excess fluid and start breathing.

The general objective of this work is to know the current state of nursing scientific production on nursing care for the Newborn in the delivery room.

A bibliographic search of nursing scientific production has been carried out up to the present time in the following databases: Cuiden, Pubmed and Liliacs.
