Aims: This study aims were to identify sources of stress and observe the evolution of the intensity affecting nursing students over the three-year degree. Material and Methods: Observational and longitudinal study of prospective nature of a nursing students cohort who are investigated to observe and measure the stress (stressors) that were generated during their clinical practice, and their evolution over his three year degree. KEZKAK questionnaire (bilingual questionnaire stressors of nursing students in clinical practice) was used. This is a validated questionnaire to measure the stressors that appear specifically in nursing students during their practical training. Results and Discussion: The incidence of high to low concern of students in their clinical practices relating to the 9 factors or subscales as generators of stress was: F1-lack of competition, F4-helplessness and uncertainty, F2-contact with suffering, F5-not control the relationship with the patient, F7-harmed by the relationship with the patient, F9-overload, F3-relationships with tutors and peers. Likewise, the intensity changes in the assignment, in general, increase from first to third. Conclusion: In light of the results and their discussion, we can conclude by saying that the main sources of stress affecting students in our school match in intensity and priority with previous studies used as reference. However, in general, differ from them, in that they are increasing in intensity at each elapse following the course of the rotary distribution practices throughout the stroke three years, as services by rotary that could create more tensions in students (oncology, emergency coronary ICU, psychiatry) are made in the last year, something that does not occur in studies that compare our results.
