    Pain behaves like a silent epidemic and has destructive consequences because it causes severe functional deterioration in various human and social dimensions; Research indicates that there is poor knowledge and a very negative attitude on the part of nurses regarding the assessment and management of pain. Objective of this thesis study was to determine the relationship between the level of knowledge and attitude of nurses towards emergency pain management, in a hospital in North Lima, Lima - Peru 2023. Methodology was quantitative, hypothetical - deductive, applied, non-experimental, correlational and cross-sectional type. The population was 85 nurses, to whom two validated questionnaire instruments were applied. To measure the level of knowledge, a questionnaire of 18 questions was used and to measure the attitude of the nurses, a questionnaire of 20 questions was used. The validation results with the Binomial test of the instrument to measure the level of knowledge show a degree of agreement of 0.0039. The results of the validity test with the "distance of multiple points" of the instrument to measure the attitude of nurses show a DPP = 2.77. The reliability of the instrument to measure the level of knowledge is KR20 = 0.8835 and the reliability of the instrument to measure the attitude of nurses is Cronbach's Alpha = 0.6518. These values show that the instruments used in this study are highly reliable for their application.
