The search was conducted with related keywords in "Scopus", "Web of Science", "PubMed" databases without a time limit. Results: The distribution of nursing per bed was reported in Australia, England, Northern Ireland, Wales, Israel, America, California, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. In Iran, the rate of nurses to intensive beds was slightly higher than the average and the ratio of nurses to ordinary and emergency beds was lower than the average of selected countries average.
