GARCIA, Maria Lúcia Pinheiro; SOUZA, Ângela Maria Alves e y HOLANDA, Teresa Cristina. Psychological assistance of the renal transplantation departament at a university hospital. Psicol. cienc. prof. [online]. 2005, vol.25, n.3, pp.472-483. ISSN 1414-9893.
This present paper is a case report from the pre-transplantation out-patient service of the renal transplantation department at a university hospital in Northeastern Brazil, followed by a psychologist, as part of a training program in Hospital Psychology by the Federal University of Ceará. The theoretical framework included systemic approach and brief psychotherapy and was focused on disease, hospitalization and discharge. In renal transplantation, it was observed that the process of donating and receiving involved the individual dynamics of donor, recipient and family, activating unconscious conflicts capable of affecting the patient's decision-making ability and emotional balance.
