Abstract

In pediatric area, the diagnosis of a chronic disease for a child can be a challenge for all the family (Kazak et al., 2009). In facts, it is a context that can be represented as a triangle: at vertices are positioned participants (pediatrician, parents and children) and each ax represent interdependent relationship between them. Pediatric area can function as an additional risk factor for the family, or as a framework that can foster resilience’ skills. In this paper, authors discuss a model of intervention of Psychological Scaffolding to Doctor - Patient Relationship (Freda et al., 2013), aimed to promoting integrations of psychological functions and tasks within the medical procedure. In particular, they discuss new relational tasks, declined through psychological functions: e.g., the Ownership as a possibility of subjectivity of the health experience, the Informed Consent as a transformation of informations in meaning resources, the Shared Decision-Making as a capacity to tolerate uncertainty. Furthermore, they present the experimentation of the intervention in specialist pediatrics addressed to families with children with Disorders of Sex Development (Hughes et al. 2006). They propose the structuring of Joint Listening Settings (JLS) (physician, psychologist, users), aimed to promoting dialogical resources, and they describe some features (e.g. the recognition of the plurality of points of view, the strengthening of dialogic resources, a focus on sufferings, an healthcare identity monitoring). These features, with their transformative value, can facilitate the dialogue, promoting the understanding of the content of the diagnosis, the expression of concerns and requirements, a shared decision-making process during the treatment.
