Methodology: Integrative literature review, qualitative descriptive and retrospective based on parameters established by Whittemore and Knafl with five stages. Inclusion criteria: scientific articles with results in physical, psychological, social and immune health through the use of distraction from nursing to pediatric population with oncological diagnosis, published in 15 scientific databases, languages: English, Portuguese and Spanish, between the years 2011-2020, with level of evidence according to Lobiondo Level I, II and III, randomized studies, with independent and separate control group, based on critical evaluation of the Joanna Briggs Institute.
Results: The distraction strategies used in children and adolescents with oncological diagnosis included: exercise, play, massage, music and complementary therapies performed in different scenarios that obtained significant results in physical, psychological, social and immune health.
Conclusions: With the use of distraction in the hospital or non-hospital setting, health benefits are achieved, proving to be an innovative and important intervention for nursing care in the pediatric oncological population.
