This article talks about specific nursing interventions carried out by nurses and nursing technicians in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases in family health programs. It aims to identify, analyze and synthesize nursing practices aimed at promoting cardiovascular health, preventing risk factors and adequate management of cardiovascular diseases in the context of primary care. The methodology used in the research was based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, for articles published between 2019 and 2024. In the search for articles, the descriptors “cardiovascular diseases”, “nursing”, “prevention of cardiovascular diseases” were used. The results obtained through the analysis of the 9 selected articles indicate that cardiovascular diseases represent a major public health problem and the main challenges in prevention are the increasing prevalence of modifiable risk factors, such as smoking, inadequate diet, lack of physical activity, and chronic stress. The study concludes that interventions carried out by nursing technicians and nurses in family health programs play a crucial role in preventing cardiovascular diseases, contributing significantly to the health and well-being of the community.
