The Associação Brasileira de Nutrição (Brazilian Nutrition Association) in its Manual Orientativo de Sistematização do Cuidado de Nutrição (Guidelines for Systematization of Nutrition Care) recommends the use of the standardized nutrition diagnosis proposed by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. In this proposal, the nutrition diagnosis should be composed of the standardized writing of the so-called "PEI", "Problem, Etiology and Indicators", where a Problem is "related to" an Etiology and is "evidenced by" Nutrition Indicators and represents a new and different form of the diagnosis made by nutritionists. The goal of this study was to analyze the perception of undergraduate students in Nutrition of the application of standardization of nutrition diagnosis in the supervised internship in clinical nutrition of a higher education institution. For this purpose, 30 students with a semi-structured script were interviewed and the data was analyzed using the Discourse of Collective Subject technique. The analysis of the transcription of the interviews allowed the identification of four central ideas, two representing barriers: Difficulty in writing the PEI with standardized terminology and Lack of knowledge of the preceptor on the standardized nutrition diagnosis. The two advantages identified were: It helps in the planning of nutritional assistance and Supports communication between nutritionists and other professionals. Thus, in the perception of the interviewed students, the application of the standardized nutrition diagnosis suggested by the Associação Brasileira de Nutrição (Brazilian Nutrition Association) can improve nutrition care and interprofessional communication, although the writing and operationalization are complex. It is expected the dissemination of this concept among Brazilian nutritionists so that the subject can be discussed for future implementation.
