Objetivo: verificar o efeito da acupuntura no controle de náuseas e vômitos em pacientes submetidos à quimioterapia. Método: trata-se de um estudo bibliográfico, descritivo, tipo revisão integrativa, realizada em periódicos on-line pesquisados na Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e na MEDLINE via PubMed, publicados entre 2008 a 2018. Selecionaram-se 15 artigos em inglês, espanhol ou português, utilizando os descritores “Acupuntura”, “Náusea” e “Neoplasia”, que tiveram aderência à temática. Resultados: percebeu-se que o efeito da acupuntura no controle de náuseas e vômitos induzidos pela quimioterapia foi satisfatório em 13 dos 15 estudos que compuseram esta revisão, mostrando uma diminuição desses sintomas durante e após o tratamento. Destacaram-se, entre os métodos evidenciados nos estudos, a acupuntura clássica e a eletroacupuntura. Conclusão: avalia-se que a acupuntura é uma prática integrativa e complementar aos tratamentos convencionais na oncologia, pois melhora a qualidade de vida dos pacientes em tratamento quimioterápico.
