The study carried out an integrative review research seeking to identify, through literature, the occurrence of Burnout Syndrome (BS) and professional exhaustion among professional nurses. Since BS is a psychosocial condition resulting from chronic stress in the workplace and considering the increase in BS cases among nurses, it is important to investigate the stressors related to nurses' work. 18 articles, published between 2019 and 2023, were selected to compose the study. The results showed moderate/high levels of BS in nursing professionals in various work sectors, related to a variety of predictive factors such as: emotional exhaustion, dissatisfaction, lack of investment in people and resources. It is worth highlighting that stress, overload, emotional exhaustion, dissatisfaction, frustration, devaluation, were associated with feelings of suffering. Warning that nurses are falling ill as a result of inadequate working conditions, physical, mental and emotional overload, occupational stress and lack of recognition. Therefore, it is important to create strategies that can contribute to reducing cases, enabling nurses to acquire more emotional, mental, quality of life at work, well-being and psychosocial support, generating healthy work environments.
