[Anxiety: an aspect of the interaction of doctor and patients on the waiting-list and after lung-transplantation].
Anxiety occurs frequently in patients who are on the waiting-list for a lung-transplantation or have already been transplanted. In this context anxiety is a theme of every interaction of doctor and patient but often remains unrecognized because it hides behind bodily symptoms and mechanisms of defense. Anxiety affects patients' behavior and compliance and may afflict - especially if not recognized - doctors' decisions and thus patients' health and survival. It is therefore necessary to recognize and to openly handle anxiety in the interaction of doctor and patient.
