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.
器官获取工作需要照料大量脑死亡患者。本研究关注这种情况对从事这一特定获取活动的团队、护士和医生的心理影响。研究在三个器官获取重症监护病房进行，涉及63名男性和女性。这些团队发现，按照脑死亡患者及其家属的说法，要接受“脑死亡”很困难，而且在移植方面也是如此：为了其他患者的生命而照料脑死亡患者。所以在这种特定的重症监护病房似乎有必要为团队而非患者（因为患者已经死亡）安排一名心理医生。
