Enquadramento: o envelhecimento populacional resulta num aumento expressivo do número de pessoas em fim de vida, tornando-se fundamental proceder a uma identificação exaustiva das necessidades específicas dos cuidadores informais. Objetivo: mapear a literatura relativa às necessidades dos cuidadores informais de pessoas em fim de vida. Metodologia: foi realizada uma scoping review na CINAHL Complete (via EBSCOHost), Medline Complete (via EBSCOHost), PubMed, Cochrane Library e Scopus. O instrumento de extração de dados foi elaborado com base no modelo preconizado pelo Joanna Briggs Institute. Resultados: pela pesquisa direta em bases de dados resultaram 826 artigos, dos quais 30 foram incluídos no estudo. Os dados foram organizados em seis categorias principais: necessidades fisiológicas e de saúde física, necessidades de informação e tomada de decisão, apoio emocional e psicológico, necessidades culturais, espirituais e religiosas, suporte social e comunitário, e autocuidado e qualidade de vida; que permitem dar resposta ao objetivo do estudo. Conclusão: esta investigação é fundamental para melhorar a qualidade de vida e personalizar os cuidados. Este estudo fornece uma base sólida para futuras investigações e intervenções, destacando a importância de uma abordagem integrada e multidisciplinar.
