title: [Tables of Moses: nursing research project].
abstract: A review of literature and in others realities of our country has been done to verify the existence of welfare procedure in stomatherapy. It has been pointed out that the behaviours are not supported by evidence and that the given performances are not measurable. It borns the idea to start a nursing research finalized to define care standards procedures supported by evidence.
  
  
  METHODS
  Once the project group is formed with nurses, ET nurses and surgeons, the research is structured in the following points: predisposition of nursing protocols; predisposition of evaluation tools for each protocol; experimentation of the tools with 150 national investigators specifically trained; gathering, elaboration and interpretation of the data; on 13.172 forms picked up, 2.034 has been regularly fulfilled; distribution of the knowledge through a text, the associative magazine, presentation at courses and associative congresses; Research development: the critic results analysis has permitted to recognize areas on which continue the research.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Data confirms the validity of specifics check-lists and protocols even if the research says the achievement of care standards results through codified performances, to disadvantage of a case-control way for example.
