摘要

Over the years, the technology concept was modified, especially from the development of scientific knowledge and the philosophical and artistic conceptions. Thus, it was used the evolutionary approach in order to analyze the concept of technology found in nursing journals; the analysis included 39 articles selected by searching the BDENF database, performed in November 2008, and covering the period 1996 to 2007. The results showed the design of technology as a product and as a process. Regarding technology as a product, it was associated with knowledge, training and thinking on the administration of these new technologies. As a process it encompassed groups and their organization, as well as training for capacitation. This technology, in turn, was organized in psychosocial rehabilitation, protection, and in group strategy. It was concluded that understanding the concept of technology helps nurses to utilize it and to support their actions in the theoretical and methodological ambiance, enabling the application of the concept to its fullest.
