Objectives: To identify the available evidence on nursing care in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma in the hospital environment, to relate the care identified in the literature to nursing theories, which aspects have been prioritized in terms of nursing care and understand at which stage of treatment the nurse is most active. Method: Scope Review Study, with search performed in LILACS and MEDLINE databases via PubMed, in June 2021, 10 articles were identified. Results: They deal with care related to specific procedures and demonstrate the importance that nurses have to act in the control of the environment, well-being, emotional support and health education, encouraging autonomy and self-care. Conclusion: There are theoretical bases that must be present throughout the care process, guiding the performance of nurses, which proves to be relevant throughout the treatment process.
