Popis: The Chronic Renal Insufficiency (CRI) causes physical and psychological limitations to patients, leading to feelings of impotence and helplessness, and consequently to the emergency of several disorders and psychological difficulties. This study aimed to describe sociodemografic profile, events of life and affective characteristics of patients with chronic insufficience renal in treatment for hemodialysis (HD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Thirty patients in treatment for more than six months were included in the study, of which 15 were in treatment with HD and 15 with CAPD. The Social Readjustment Rating Scale (SRRS), a semi-directed interview and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were used as instruments for evaluation. It was verified that the patients in HD possess greater probability to develop other problems of health (74%) and greater anxiety indices (47%). On the other hand, the patients in treatment for CAPD had presented greater depression incidence (47%).
