[Knowledge and attitudes about advance directives on physicians and nurses.]

CONCLUSIONS: The knowledge of physicians and nurses on advance directives is low, so it is necessary to improve this knowledge. Physicians and nurses from both levels show positive attitude towards the use and usefulness and respect the contents of advance directive. The methodology proposed is efficient to implement in a larger study, but should improve the distribution and collection of questionnaires.
