Introduction: Given the characteristics of the health status of newborns admitted to neonatal intensive care units, has the tendency to value related to biological rather than a full- service care aspects. For this reason, it is considered important to use the model Dorothy Johnson Behavioral System, which allows nurses from identifying behaviors, to intervene in order to contribute to the return to the equilibrium state of the newborn, favoring its development. This article aims to present three instruments prepared under the light of Nursing Theory of the Behavioral System Model by Dorothy Johnson to subsidize the nursing process in the neonatal intensive care unit. Materials and Methods: A creation of instruments that serve to subsidize the nursing process in the neonatal intensive care unit. Results and Discussion: From the analysis of the demands for care of preterm neonates was built three instruments to subsidize nursing care: data collection; possible nursing diagnoses and interventions / evaluation of nursing outcomes. Conclusions: The instruments are aligned to promote the use of clinical reasoning and manual is designed to fill, although consistent with its transposition into electronic format
