dc.description	O atendimento a pacientes terminais pelas equipes de saúde, comprovadamente apontado por evidências na literatura, mostra a grande dificuldade que esses profissionais têm em lidar com o tema "morte". O presente estudo objetivou compreender como as equipes de saúde definem e vivenciam o paciente terminal. Para tanto, utilizou-se uma abordagem qualitativa que empregou a pesquisa etnográfica através de observação não-participativa, além de entrevistas semi-estruturadas nas unidades de hemato-oncologia e de infectologia de um hospital público. Os resultados certificaram as dificuldades por parte da equipe em lidar com pacientes terminais, bem como em defini-los como tais e comunicar aos mesmos a sua condição. Dessa forma, percebeu-se a intensa necessidade da realização de um trabalho direto com as equipes de saúde com o intuito de lhes proporcionar um espaço de reflexão e de entendimento, propiciando a continência das emoções suscitadas na equipe de saúde perante a situação da morte.<br>The care given to terminally ill patients by health staff, properly indicated in evidences of literature, shows the great difficulties that those professionals have in dealing with the death. This study intends to show how those professionals define and experience terminally ill patients. Thus, a qualitative approach was applied to ethnographic research through observations and semi-structured interviews were used in the hematology-oncology and infectology departments of a public hospital. Results attest to the difficulties on the part of health staffs in handling and defining terminally ill patients, as well as the difficult task of rendering those patiens aware of their terminal condition. That said, one realizes the need for a direct-contact approach with such health staffs intending to provide them time for reflection and understanding which favor some restraint in their emotions brought on in face of death situations.
