Articles published between 2016 and 2021 were consulted, the search resulted in 186 articles and after entering the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 14 articles were analyzed. As a result, it was observed that the teachers had basic notions of first aid based on knowledge acquired in graduation, they highlighted that it is insufficient given the complexity of some urgent and emergency circumstances that may happen at school. It was noticed that the lack of security of teachers may be related to their training. Teachers report that the workload is insufficient, that the content of first aid is seen in a superficial way and with a lack of practices to assimilate and practice the content.
