eng	Nurses from Practice Awareness about Clinical Nutrition	Practice in clinical nutrition make us think everybody knows. What is the real awareness among nurses? 39% see no sequentiality of starvation and undernutrition 44% do not consider as causes of undernutition: loss of teeth or apetite, alcohol abuse, mechanical compression of digestive tract and a lower food intake. 48,4%: undernutrition combined with a big stress does not lead to death. 50% see no link between undernutrition and immunity, healing. 47%: no link between stress starvation and wound healing; 22% think organism adapts quickly to stress starvation. 68,8%: artificial nutrition blocks the stress catabolism; 39%: nursing care of central or peripheral cathters is the same; 61,2% have no clear image about enteral nutrition. The relatively high percentage of wrong answers to test questions show the low awareness about undernutrition, starvation and energetic metabolism. Further education of nurses can help to focus more attention to this topic in practice.	Clinical nutrition, awareness of nurses, starvation, undernutrition, wound healing
