[Psychologic and human implications of intensive care and rehabilitation of severe head injuries patients].

Consequences which are involved in intensive care and rehabilitation of severely head injuries patients seem to be numerous, variable in different times and different situations. However, the authors, for more than ten years, have taken care of severely injured patients from coma to socio-professional reinsertion, and so, it allowed them to concentrate their interest to that main point: it is necessary to make a place to the patient as a desiring patient, and not only as brain injured patient who needs medical care, medical knowledge and who needs be repaired. So the Psycho-Rehabilitation Unit works this way, to allow a new intra and intersubjective homeostasis, in spite of injury and sequellae.
