| Sumario: | Introduction: Moderate to intense pain is prevalent after surgical procedures and it is associated with increases in postoperative morbidity and mortality. Objective: Evaluate the effectiveness of control and the factors associated with perception of pain intensity in patients undergoing abdominal surgery in hospital surgical clinics of two public hospitals in Brasilia Methods: Transversal and descriptive study, through document analysis, and interviews with patients, performed at two public hospitals from Brasilia. Data were collected about clinical features, surgical procedures and pain management from 342 patients. Pain was evaluated using the visual analog scale on the first 48 postoperative hours. The results were compared with data encountered on the bibliographic review. Results: 100% of patients in the prescription of analgesics postoperative was not based on the best scientific evidence. Moderate to intense pain was observed in 38.9% of patients. The most prescribed analgesic drug was dipyrone (83.6%). Of the patients using dipyrone alone, 29.2% of patients reported moderate to intense pain. Moderate to intense pain was significantly associated with women, with the use of anesthetic procedures other than epidural and therapeutic plans prescribed by the attending doctor. The majority of patients (50.9%) didn’t receive previous information about postoperative pain, 61% of patients who were in pain didn’t ask for relief and 80% of them had records of pain assessment, but without the use of scales and pain characterization. Conclusions: Postoperative pain management in the evaluated hospitals does not follow conducts based on the best evidence.
