Popis: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Despite the available evidence, there is still a lack of knowledge and a high prevalence of pain in different clinical contexts, with a negative impact on patients’ well-being, functionality and recovery. The present study’s objective was to map the literature on educational strategies and theoretical references used in the application of educational interventions on pain for nursing staff and the content taught. CONTENTS: Integrative literature review conducted in seven databases, using the descriptors “Pain” OR “Pain Management” AND “Education” OR “Education, nursing” OR “Educational Status” OR “Teaching” AND “Nursing” OR “Nursing Team”. Studies describing educational interventions in pain for nursing staff, published in the last 10 years, were analyzed. Thirty-three articles were analyzed. The theoretical references used in the interventions were: COM-B Framework, Self-efficacy Theory; Human Care Theory and Critical Thinking. Among the educational strategies were trail simulation, problem-based learning, flipped classroom and spaced learning. The interventions were offered as e-learning, lectures, case discussions, simulation and combined formats. The main contents covered were neurobiology of pain, biopsychosocial experience, principles of assessment, recording and pharmacological and non-pharmacological management of pain. CONCLUSION: Few educational interventions explained the theoretical framework used. The educational strategies were varied, with a predominance of active teaching strategies and combined formats. Educational interventions on pain seem to contribute to increasing the self-confidence of nursing professionals in the assessment and management of pain.
