Since there are several studies than indicate that the CBN, inappropriately, causes aftermath that can be devastating and long-lasting, this research is proposed with the main objective of knowing the assessment that students of the Degree in Medicine make about their training in CBN. Method This study has a descriptive design. Through an online questionnaire, prepared ad hoc, the opinion of the students of the Degree in Medicine was evaluated on different aspects related to the CBN. Results 120 sixth-year students of the Bachelor of Medicine participated in the research, who were studying at different Spanish universities. Although CBN is a reality that almost all have experienced (90.8%), only half believe that it has been sufficiently prepared in the degree to deal with such situations.
