Popis: Previous studies demonstrate that psychological factors intervene in the results of a cardiac transplant. They differ, in its findings, function of the paradigms the one that are tied, that they include or not it intersubjective field in which the phenomena emerge. In this inquiry we objectify to describe the mental functioning of patient candidates to the transplant, from its relations you object unconscious, delimiting a common emotional experience in this situation, as well as, we search to inquire if differences between the patients exist, in the function accomplishment or not surgery. As main procedure, the Phillipson’s Object Relations Test (ORT) was applied to 63 subjects with cardiopathy, and subscribed to the transplant. The clinical material proceeding from the psychological follow-up of these patients also is used to complete the comments. The results point the presence of psychopathological symptoms, in accordance with the Grassano classification with respect to clinical depression in 60 cases. In two cases they had observed indicating for psychopath and a case for psychotic functioning, with negative repercussions on the bond with the treatment. Significant differences in the performance of the patients had been evidenced statistical front to the blades BG and C2, but we cannot affirm that the difficulties of perceptual adjustment in these blades, more frequent between that do not make the surgery, either factor of obstacle to the procedure. We suggest, as theoretical hypothesis of this work, the presence of psychic shelters, in accordance with Steiner as strategy of psychic survival, in this situation, in view of the predominance of regressive, of persecutory object relations, and in extreme virtue of depressive anxiety. Thus, in this Phoenix nest shelter, the patient takes shelter from the pain loss (I fight for the life, for a removed heart) and the destruction (the illness devastation, surgical risk and the suppressive immunology), obtaining to face the cardiac transplantation process. In case that contrary, the patient loses to the depressive picture.
