Resumo: This is a descriptive and exploratory study which aims at identifying the process of coping with the changes in the body of laryngectomized patients by family members who participate in GARPO in the City of Ribeirão Preto-SP, Brazil. Approximately 16 relatives of nine patients participated in the study. Data were collected by means of structured interviews from March to October, 2000 and analyzed according to the qualitative methodological approach, aiming at finding the meaning attributed to this experience. The relatives’ coping process was guided by a “search for stability” attitude. It was identified that family members use strategies which focus on emotions and problems in order to deal with the patient’s changed body. These strategies are dynamic and aim at protecting the laryngectomized person and themselves as well as searching for stability in family life. However, they can lead family members to neglect the patient’s real health conditions. According to the addressed theme, family members show their suffering and need for support and advise from nurses and other health care professionals who take part in the patient’s rehabilitation.

Participaram cerca de 16 familiares de nove pacientes. Os dados foram coletados pela entrevista semi-estruturada, no período de março a outubro de 2000, e analisados sob a abordagem metodológica qualitativa, buscando-se o significado atribuído a essa vivência. O processo de enfrentamento dos familiares inseriu-se no âmbito da “busca pela estabilidade”. Identificamos que os familiares utilizam estratégias focalizadas nas emoções e nos problemas para lidar com a imagem corporal alterada do paciente. Essas estratégias são dinâmicas e têm o objetivo de proteger o laringectomizado, a si mesmos e buscar a estabilidade da vida familiar. Entretanto, elas podem levar os familiares a negligenciar as reais condições de saúde do paciente. Pelo tema descrito, os familiares demonstram o seu sofrimento e a necessidade de apoio e aconselhamento por parte do enfermeiro e demais profissionais de saúde que participam da reabilitação do paciente.INCA2002-03-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigos, Avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/226410.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2002v48n1.2264Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 48 No. 1 (2002): Jan./Feb./Mar.; 49-56Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 48 Núm. 1 (2002): ene./feb./mar.; 49-56Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 48 n. 1 (2002): jan./fev./mar.; 49-562176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/2264/1412Pedrolo, Flávia Tatiana Zago, Márcia Maria Fontãoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:39:43Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/2264Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:39:43Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
