Abstract
Objectives: Mapping nursing care in kidney transplant patients. Materials and method: A scoping review was conducted according to the recommendations of the Joanna Briggs Institute Reviewers’ Manual. Data were collected through 13 national and international databases from December 2020 to January 2021, following scientific rigor in the selection of the material. The pre-selection was made by reading the title, abstract and introductory text in advance; the materials included in this stage were read in full to define the content for the study. Results: Fifteen studies were included. Of these, 60% are articles; dissertations, manuals, protocols, guidelines and bulletins totaled 40% of the material studied. 86.6% of the material has a quantitative approach. Regarding the methodological design, 73.3% were descriptive/transversal character studies. Regarding the mapping of nursing care, it was possible to divide them into two categories: nursing care after kidney transplantation (immediate, mediated and late) and nursing care after kidney transplantation in primary health/extra-hospital care. Conclusions: It is concluded that the study allowed mapping nursing care to kidney transplant patients in the immediate, late and primary health care periods.
Highlights
Chronic kidney diseases (CKD) are quickly increasing worldwide and represent important events for public health, as a significant percentage of affected individuals progress to death
In the publication of Ordinance 389/2014, which defines the criteria for the organization of the care line of the person with CKD, replacement therapies for kidney function are peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis and kidney transplantation, when the individual has advanced CKD [2]

Summary
Chronic kidney diseases (CKD) are quickly increasing worldwide and represent important events for public health, as a significant percentage of affected individuals progress to death. This population demands a health system organized in terms of the appropriate process and structure, so that qualified care occurs, with treatment for such diseases, according to their needs [1]. In the publication of Ordinance 389/2014, which defines the criteria for the organization of the care line of the person with CKD, replacement therapies for kidney function are peritoneal dialysis, hemodialysis and kidney transplantation, when the individual has advanced CKD [2]. During therapy, hospital admissions, high complexity procedures, follow-up of the specialized outpatient clinic and follow-up of primary care in its home location may be necessary [2, 10, 11]
