title: [Parents of children dialysed at home. Psychological assessment (author's transl)].
abstract: Ten married couples with children undergoing home dialysis were examined by means of different tests used in family interaction diagnosis (Joint Rorschach, SIMFAM, Giessen Test, Bales Scale, Expert Rating). The couples showed a similar cooperation as found in a group of psychologically "ordinary" couples, but emotional problems between the parents of home dialysis children were at least as frequent as in a group of psychologically, disturbed couples needing family therapy. The role of the psychologist for the stability testing in parents of children destined for regular dialysis and for psychotherapeutic preparation to home dialysis is described.
