Abstract:

This article presents a qualitative research on the empathic dimension in the physician-patient relation. We investigate in which ways the access to other’s perspective can collaborate to clinical management. The material was researched in Community Mental Health Centers of Rio de Janeiro and Campinas. Focus groups were conducted with psychiatrists and people with schizophrenia and the transcribed material was analyzed having the phenomenology and medical anthropology as theoretical frameworks. The narratives studied were organized into five main categories: Clinical management; Negotiation of medication; Diagnostic communication; The meeting with the user‘s perspective; and Empathy limits. In these thematic categories the participants developed the following subjects: shared construction of care; the desire to know the diagnostic contrasted with the hesitation to inform it; the management between the control of symptoms and side effects to the negotiation of medication; the effort to get closer to the user experience; and the crisis as a limit of empathy.
