Abstract: Introduction: radiotherapy treatment aims to cure or reduce the effects of cancer. It can be used alone or concomitantly with other modalities. Radiation causes progressive and deleterious damage to tumor cells as doses are applied, however, all cells in the area where the treatment is being administered suffer radiation injuries, causing the patient to experience manifestations of toxicity, such as radiodermatitis, mucositis, erythema, fatigue, anorexia and dysphagia. Given the above, nurses must develop care through the Systematization of Nursing Care (SAE), planning individualized and specific actions for the possible complications that radiotherapy treatment entails. Objective: to identify the most frequent signs and symptoms in patients undergoing radiotherapy treatment and, based on the stipulated signs and symptoms, list the diagnoses and nursing care. Method: a systematic review with analysis of ten scientific articles, two nursing books on oncology and two books on nursing diagnoses. Results: The proposal indicates the main titles of possible nursing diagnoses that are identified in patients during radiotherapy treatment and the nursing care plan corresponding to each diagnosis. Six diagnoses were identified, five of which are allocated within the group of Psychobiological Needs and one in the group of Psychosocial Needs of Basic Human Needs. Conclusion: the importance of providing specialized care to patients who are undergoing complex treatment was verified, considering that the nursing process aims to help the nurse to systematize care, to know the real problems and risks that the patient may face. present and, given this discovery, seek individualization of care and credibility of the work developed.
