Abstract
Objective: to analyze the evidence of the literature about pain management during arterial puncture, venous and capillary in the newborn that received non-pharmacological measures before the painful procedure. Methods: this is an integrative review performed in databases. Initially, 120 articles were selected being a sample composed of ten articles. Data were collected in forms. Results: orally glucose was the most used method followed by breast milk and contact measures and the use of glucose associated or not to breast milk and contact measures. Conclusion: the use of non-pharmacological methods has been proven effective to promote the relief of pain in newborns.

Summary
The pain felt by the newborn has been studied in recent years through the risk of possible neurological and behavioral changes that painful experiences produces about development[1]. This fact has aroused concern in the multidisciplinary team that provides care to newborns in neonatal units, in the nursing team that performs these punctures. It is estimated that during this period of hospitalization in the neonatal intensive care unit, newborns receive about 50 to 150 potentially painful procedures per day[4] This can vary according to the clinical status of the patient, the duration of hospitalization, as well as the exposure to an external stimulus, such as intense and continuous light, temperature and noise
