Sumario:Introduction. Safe Care is the cause or consequence of nursing interventions. Patient safety is a topic of interest in recent years, however, to speak of the preterm newborn (RNPT) with endotracheal tube (ETT), is to confront a vulnerable population due to its biophysiological characteristics. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) represents a complex environment, in these scenarios it is important to know the factors that can contribute to "Safe Care" avoiding an adverse event (AD) and its repercussions for life. Objective: Describe and publicize aspects found around the world on the Safe Care of RNPT with TET. Development: A search was made in different databases: Pubmed, Scielo, VHL, LILACS, Elsevier, using (DeCs) / (MeSH), rescuing national and international articles, Spanish, English and  Portuguese, from 5 years to date , with titles related to the care of the newborn. Three items were explored: body position in the RNPT, nursing care omitted, adverse events (AEs) in the NICU. Conclusions: The respiratory function of RNPT with TET is optimized with the body position factor. The omitted care has been little studied in the neonatal area. The EAs that prevail are: those related to infusion therapy, thermoregulation, associated infections and unscheduled extubation (ENP). Safe Care must be approached in depth in order to issue specific recommendations for this vulnerable group of the population.
