title: [The nurse and postoperating pain: the perception of pain phenomenon].
abstract: According to the existing guidelines, nurses "...collaborate in identifying the health needs of the person and the nursing requirements, plan, put into practice and evaluate the caring procedures...ensure that diagnostic and therapeutic procedures are correctly performed..." Legislation governing professional responsibility obliges nurses to "care for the sick person and to take action to alleviate symptoms, especially those that can be prevented". In daily clinical practice, the evaluation and treatment of pain does not always coincide with the recommendations, from both a legislative and ethical point of view.
