Resumo
O tema da morte e do morrer tem sido um dos maiores tabus na sociedade moderna. No entanto, as práticas dos profissionais de saúde são atravessadas pelos significados a elas atribuídas, sendo imprescindível a análise de como os profissionais, especialmente da psicologia, se relacionam com os aspectos da morte e do processo do morrer. Este artigo tratou-se de uma revisão bibliográfica integrativa com abordagem qualitativa, tendo como referência os artigos científicos identificados na base de dados LILACS, SCIELO e periódicos on-line no período de 2000 a 2020. A análise de conteúdo foi realizada por meio da adaptação do método Análise Temática. Verificou-se um contexto de negação e distanciamento profissional, no qual ocorre a morte social do paciente, o que gera e agrava o sofrimento de todos os envolvidos no processo, e principalmente o sofrimento do próprio enfermo. O modelo biomédico observado contrapõe a conduta esperada do profissional da saúde, que deveria agir a partir da premissa de que não sendo possível curar, sempre é possível cuidar. Desta forma, é essencial que profissionais e gestores, tanto acadêmicos quanto institucionais, reavaliem suas posições e concepções sobre a morte e o morrer, pois compreender suas próprias atitudes diante desta temática permite que a mudança ocorra, levando a um contato mais empático com o paciente.
The subject of death and dying has been one of the greatest taboos in modern society. However, the practices of health professionals are crossed by the meanings attributed to them, it is essential to analyze how professionals, especially in psychology, relate to aspects of death and the process of dying. This article is an integrative bibliographic review with a qualitative approach, having as reference the scientific articles identified in the LILACS, SCIELO database and online journals from 2000 to 2020. Content analysis was carried out by adapting the Analysis method Thematic. There was a context of denial and professional detachment, in which the patient's social death occurs, which generates and exacerbates the suffering of everyone involved in the process and, mainly, the suffering of the patient himself. The biomedical model observed is opposed to the expected conduct of the health professional, who must act under the premise that, when it is not possible to cure, it is always possible to care. Thus, it is essential that professionals and managers, academic and institutional, reevaluate their positions and conceptions about death and dying, because understanding their own attitudes towards this theme allows the change to occur, leading to a more empathic contact with the patient.
