description ABSTRACT This study aimed to identify how WHODAS 2.0 is being used in clinical trials. This is a systematic review that selected clinical trials in Portuguese, English, and Spanish that used WHODAS 2.0. The search was conducted in the following databases: MEDLINE, Embase, LILACS, and PEDro. Data were collected on country, year, population, objectives, version of WHODAS 2.0, and variables evaluated. This study found 206 references, after analysis and evaluation of the inclusion criteria, 32 articles were selected. Most studies were conducted in Asia (n=10), followed by America (n=9). Of the 32 studies, four used the 36-item version, 17 used the 12-item version, the others did not report or used results from specific domains. Regarding study population, most articles (n=24) included individuals with mental disorders as their target population. Among the health professionals who participated in the research, most were physicians and nurses. It was observed that despite being an instrument recommended by the WHO to assess functioning, only 32 studies used it. It was possible to observe that the instrument is disseminated worldwide and despite being a generic instrument, most studies used it to evaluate the population with mental disorders.
