[Experience of health personnel at an organ procurement center].
Organs' procurement oblige to take care of a great number of brain death patients. This study concerns the psychological influence of such a situation on teams, nurses and physicians of this specific activity of harvesting. It took place in three organs' procurement intensive care units and interested sixty three men and women. These teams reveal the difficulty to live "the brain death", according to brain death patients themselves and their families, but also to transplantation: to work on brain death patients for the life of other patients. So it seem necessary to give a place at a psychologist in this specific intensive care units not for the patients, they are dead, but for the teams.
