After analysis according to the inclusion criteria, the selection of the articles was performed. 317 publications were from foreign languages. Of the remaining 703 publications, 669 articles do not fit within the inclusion criteria for the year of publication. Of the 34 that remained, only 14 have the theme about the evaluation of the pain of the NB performed by the nursing team.
