To analyze the production of scientific knowledge about the use of patients' classification instruments in care and management practice in Brazil.
Integrative literature review with databases search in: Latin American and Caribbean Literature on Health Sciences (LILACS), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System on-line (MEDLINE), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) and SCOPUS, between January 2002 through December 2013.
1,194 studies were found, 31 met the inclusion criteria. We observed a higher number of studies in the category care plans and workload (n=15), followed by the category evaluation of psychometric properties (n=14).
Brazilian knowledge production has not yet investigated some purposes of using instruments for classifying patients in professional nursing practice. The identification of unexplored areas can guide future research on the topic.
分析巴西在护理与管理实践中使用患者分类工具的科学知识产出情况。
于2002年1月至2013年12月期间，通过在拉丁美洲和加勒比地区健康科学文献数据库（LILACS）、医学文献分析与检索系统在线版（MEDLINE）、护理学与健康相关文献累积索引数据库（CINAHL）和Scopus数据库中进行检索，开展综合文献综述。
共检索到1194项研究，其中31项符合纳入标准。我们发现护理计划与工作量类别中的研究数量较多（n = 15），其次是心理测量特性评估类别（n = 14）。
巴西的知识产出尚未对专业护理实践中使用患者分类工具的某些目的进行研究。识别未探索的领域可指导该主题的未来研究。
