Abstract

The study consists of a bibliographical review about the mother and son attachment and its considerations in nursing care intervention, in the child's hospitalization process. In deciding to study this theme we had the purpose to obtain knowledge that would be useful in daily pediatric and neonatal nursing practice. We evidenced the importance of knowledge dissemination about the attachment among the nursing professionals, because their performance can interfere in a significant way in the hospitalized child's social and emotional development. However, in spite of the importante of the theme, few scientific studies in the nursing area were published. For our theoretical knowledge we searched another knowledge areas as psychology, sociology and anthropology.
