Resumen


Introducción

El alta de la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI) a la sala de hospitalización activa el sistema afectivo de los pacientes provocando la aparición de sentimientos asociados al proceso de transición.  Los objetivos de este trabajo son conocer los sentimientos y emociones que emergen de la experiencia de ser dado de alta de una UCI e identificar los factores que desencadenan bienestar y malestar emocional en los pacientes.

 

Método

Estudio cualitativo y descriptivo con enfoque fenomenológico en un hospital de tercer nivel de Barcelona. Se realizaron 20 entrevistas en profundidad para la recogida de datos.

 

Resultados

Se identificaron sentimientos y emociones agradables que provocan bienestar cuando se produce la transferencia: Alegría, satisfacción y seguridad, y sentimientos desagradables que producen malestar: Ansiedad, tristeza, miedo, rabia, desprotección y ambivalencia de sentimientos.

 

Conclusiones

Es necesaria una reflexión sobre el gran número de sentimientos que evoca el alta de la UCI a la sala de hospitalización y cuáles son los desencadenantes que los provocan para poder trabajar en ellos y propiciar un alta de UCI emocionalmente saludable.
