    Descriptive and correlational study which aimed to verify medication errors through the analyzes of medical charts of children admitted in three pediatric wards of a university hospital. The errors could represent record gaps verified on the care process documentation, that do not compromise the patient safety. In the 68 medical charts 1717 errors were verified, 21.1% of the 8152 drugs doses or solutions ordered during the studied period. More than 13 categories of errors were identified, omission errors (dose or records) were the most frequents (75.7%). The types of errors indicated the need of continuous education and the implementation of management tools that allowed the development of the practice and monitoring results.
