Introdução: A utilização de opioides tem gerado discussões ao redor do mundo, uma vez que países desenvolvidos sofrem uma epidemia desses medicamentos, ao passo que países subdesenvolvidos e em desenvolvimento os subutilizam, o que prejudica a qualidade do tratamento da dor nesses locais, o que inclui o Brasil. Objetivo: analisar o uso de opioides no Brasil, a partir do mapeamento de evidências sobre o tema por meio de uma revisão de escopo. Materiais e Métodos: realizou-se uma busca nas bases de dados Biblioteca Virtual da Saúde (BVS), Embase e PubMed por publicações potencialmente relevantes, tendo-se em foco, inicialmente, a América Latina. Após seleção das publicações relevantes para o continente, separaram-se as publicações que tratassem especificamente do Brasil. Resultados e Discussão: das 2.365 publicações inicialmente encontradas nas bases de dados, 42 selecionaram-se para estudo sobre opioides na América Latina e apenas 9 possuíam o Brasil como foco. Dentre elas, o tema mais frequentemente abordado foi a prescrição de opioides e o tipo de estudo mais comum foi a análise quantitativa. Considerações Finais: apesar da baixa quantidade de publicações encontradas, todas elas foram produzidas nos últimos anos, o que evidencia que o uso de opioides vem sendo mais discutido no Brasil. Contudo, um maior número de estudos em torno do tema se faz necessário para uma melhora da qualidade do tratamento da dor no país.
Introduction: The use of opioids has generated discussions around the world, since developed countries suffer an epidemic of these drugs, while underdeveloped and developing countries underuse them, which harms the quality of pain treatment in these places, which includes Brazil. Objective: to analyze the use of opioids in Brazil, based on the mapping of evidence on the subject through a scoping review. Materials and Methods: a search was carried out in the Biblioteca Virtual da Saúde (BVS), Embase and PubMed databases for potentially relevant publications, initially focusing on Latin America. After the selection of publications relevant to the continent, the ones specifically about Brazil were chosen. Results and Discussion: out of the 2,365 publications initially found in the databases, 42 were selected for a study on opioids in Latin America and only 9 focused on Brazil. Among them, the most frequently addressed topic was the prescription of opioids and the most common type of study was quantitative analysis. Final Considerations: despite the low number of publications found, all of them were produced in recent years, which shows that the use of opioids has been more discussed in Brazil. However, a greater number of studies on the subject is necessary to improve the quality of pain treatment in the country.
