- Abstract
Objective: The study's goal has been to characterize the national scientific production about pain in palliative care published by nurses. Methods: It is an integrative literature review. The bibliographic survey took place in June 2019 and publications from the last five years were included in the LILACS, BDENF and Medline databases. Results: A sample of 23 articles was obtained, most of them (78.26%) original articles that were published, almost all (60.86%), in LILACS in various regions of the country. Three thematic categories have been delimited: Prevalence of pain and treatment modalities in palliative care; Tools and pain assessment; and Perception of pain in palliative care. Conclusion: There was a high prevalence of pain among patients; association between pharmacological and complementary therapies as treatment modalities; scales that subsidize their evaluation by nursing professionals; and the existence of professionals with gaps in knowledge about the perception of pain.
