Abstract(s)
O presente trabalho é um aspecto parcial da experiência
de coordenação de uma equipa de Saúde Mental
de apoio psiquiátrico a doentes infectados com
o vírus HIV, no Serviço de Doenças Infecto-contagiosas
do Hospital de Santa Maria (Director: Prof. Carvalho
Araújo e Prof. Francisco Antunes). A uma amostra
de 123 doentes (110 homens e 13 mulheres)
seropositivos e com o síndrome de de imunodeficiência
adquirida foi aplicado um inventário psicológico
que visa avaliar os modos de lidar com a doença
(Mecanismos de «coping»), e escalas de avaliação
de perturbação psicopatológica (escala de depressão
de Beck e escala AMDP condensada em itens psicopatológicos).
O estudo das médias das respostas e
a análise da variância (MULTINOVA, SPASS) revelaram
diferenças significativas entre as sub-amostras
(sujeitos seropositivos HIV e doentes com SIDA) no
que se refere aos mecanismos de «coping» e ao padrão
de perturbação emocional. As relações entre
os mecanismos de «coping» e a perturbação emocional
são analisadas com um modelo de correlação.
Finalmente é apresentado, em síntese, um programa
de aconselhamento psicológico aos seropositivos.
ABSTRACT: This study concerns part of the experience in coordinating a team for psychiatric help of HIV infected patients of the Department of Infectocontagious Diseases of Hospital Santa Maria (Head of Department: Professors Carvalho Araújo and Francisco Antunes). A sample of 123 seropositive AIDS patients (110 Males and 13 Females) was psychological assessed in relation to different ways of coping with the disease. Scales for evaluating psychopathological disturbances were also used (Beck’s scale for depression and AMDP system of psychopathological items). The observation of mean answers and the analysis of variance (MULTINOVA, SPSS) has shown significant differences between the two sub-samples (seropositive subjects and AIDS patients), concerning both coping mechanisms and emotional disturbance. A correiation model was used in order to analyse the reiations between ways of coping and psychopathological symptoms. A synthesis of a counselling programme for the seropositive subjects is also presented.
