Explanatory search near to ward students according to the therapeutic bath technic of the intensely burned person, considering its necessity, so as, the painful syndrome to which this kind of patient is subjected when this technic is imputed. The results were taken from two questionnaires: the first one was applied to the students before the clinical teaching, where the related technic would be performed; the second one, after its conclusion. The students were observed during the therapeutic bath execution and the remarks were collected by the observer on a sheet of observation. It was determined that the elements which lead the students to avoid helping the intensely burned person by the therapeutic bath execution are not straightly related to their professional formation but to their inherent factors.
