Resumen:
This thesis is mainly a narrative research on some oral accounts of expert nurses in Intensive Care Units. They were found as an answer to the following question: ¿Could you please tell me any story about your ICU practices that you remember specially? This question tries to explore the practical knowledge of some dimensions of the care that is not possible to quantify. Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of practice and the abilities of expert nurses described by Patricia Benner are used in order to tackle a narrative immersion in the stories of the nurses that interprets: the favorite subjects of their stories, the aspects linked to their memories; the abilities and “ways to do” and the relationships they build. It also shows the importance of the emotion in remembering and developing experience, which motivates the care and the inbuilt knowledge that let them see and do what it is important in their practices. Just as the level of knowledge of the ways of domination, violence and symbolic capitals that are put at risk in the field of ICU.
