Objective: to analyse pain management in children hospitalized for respiratory problems with pain during hospitalization. Method: This is an observational, cross-sectional, retrospective study conducted at a public teaching hospital in São Paulo, using the medical records of children hospitalized in the pediatric division in 2017. Data was collected in 2018 and subjected to descriptive and inferential analysis. Results: The medical records of 199 children with pain were analyzed, and 91.4% of them were found to have at least one prescribed pharmacological intervention, which 68.8% received; one child received a non-pharmacological intervention and 25.1% had their pain reassessed. The outcome of completing all three stages of pain management (22.1%) was associated with: children around two years older, those who received pharmacological intervention or had their pain reassessed and those with the NANDA nursing diagnosis 00132-Acute pain. Conclusion: pain management in children hospitalized for respiratory problems is undervalued in care practice.
