The construction of the Clinical Case in Mental Health - Breno Ferreira Pena
Professor Breno Ferreira Pena, professor of the research line Psychoanalysis: theory and clinical, coordinates the research project entitled "The construction of the clinical case in mental health through a discourse that favors the insertion of the patient into the social bond", whose proposal is to make available at the João Barros Barreto University Hospital a service that deals with cases of psychosis or severe neuroses, through the construction of the case in mental health. The demand for such a service arises from the difficulties that the hospital staff presents when caring for psychotic patients when they are admitted to a general hospital, not because of their psychic issues, but because of some illness in the body. As João Barros Barreto University Hospital is not the mental health reference of the municipality, it does not have a multidisciplinary team that has experience with psychosis or even with severe cases of neurosis in order to manage this type of case adequately. While the patient remains hospitalized for treatment of a cancer, for example, and exhibits psychotic manifestations, the multidisciplinary team calls for building the clinical case in mental health for project members. Thus, project members establish with the multidisciplinary team of the hospital involved with the case staff that provides the clinical fragments and promotes interventions in the direction of treatment. Specific direction for each hospitalized patient presenting with an outbreak, manifestations of psychosis or even neurotic symptoms, but complex clinical management. In addition to Professor Breno, this project counts on the participation of Professor Ana Cleide Guedes Moreira, with the master's research of the PPGP student Ana Carolina Peck and four interns, UPFA psychology graduate students Beatriz Evangelista de Araújo, Ana Maria Campos da Rocha, Lucas Cunha Rodrigues, Lana Yasmin Leal da Silva and Brenda Cristina Souza Marques Figueiredo. The project thus contributes to the improvement of care for patients with severe mental suffering hospitalized at the HUJBB for the development and improvement of effective psychological theories and techniques, adherence to treatment and reduction of psychological distress in each case. In addition, the staff of the institution itself benefits from having an improvement in their clinical listening.

Psychologist's performance in the treatment of autism and childhood neurological syndromes - Roseane Nicolau
Professor Roseane Freitas Nicolau coordinates the research entitled "Psychoanalysis in Interdisciplinarity: analysis of the demands of professionals for the psychologist's performance in the treatment of autism and childhood neurological syndromes". Approved in the Official Notice MCTI / CNPQ / MEC / CAPES No. 22/2014, since 2014, it has been involved in an extensive network of researchers from other national and international centers, for example UNIFOR, PUC-SP and PARIS VII. He also includes undergraduate and graduate students in psychology at UFPA. Characterized as a theoretical-clinical investigation on the developmental problems, its treatment and diagnosis and on the possibility of the clinical practice of the psychoanalyst together with the multidisciplinary team of the Service, which provides assistance within the framework of the child care policy of the Developmental Outpatient Clinic Bettina Ferro University Hospital (UBFS), the research aims to investigate mental health care modalities with children with autism, severe neurological syndromes, paralyzes, genetic syndromes, learning disabilities and hyperactivity, epilepsies, ataxias and mucopolysaccharidoses, aiming to increase interdisciplinary care projects that included listening to children and their caregivers. The project aims to make a dialogue with physicians and other professionals who work in the University Hospital Bettina Ferro, where the discussion of cases and their treatments will allow to include the psychological treatment for the autism and family members. In addition, to investigate the pictures of autism diagnosed in the Walk Service, aiming at their understanding in the light of psychoanalysis. The major contribution of this project was to propose intervention mechanisms that go beyond the instrumental character of institutional practices. In this regard, we develop theoretical-clinical devices for listening to the singularity of each child, contributing to the practice of Freudo-Lacanian orientation, in keeping with the particularities of the clinic with children, which must necessarily include the family; a language differentiated from the subject, because it is playful; to coexist with other knowledge (mainly medical and pedagogical) in a critical multiprofessional practice; to look for the capacity of response of the subject before that which affects it, and not to respond to the social appeal of locating it in impotence and failure. The project provided for the creation of the following listening: parent group entitled "Caring for who cares"; listening in waiting room; the group of play activities; and the individual attendance of children, as well as the discussion of cases with the team, and the results of this work are elaborated theoretically. From these devices we provide continuous assistance to children and their families. In 2017, 365 sessions were held with the 7 children attending the individual care. As for the parents group, 198 caregivers and 150 children participated during the 32 meetings held. During the research development period, six (6) master's dissertations were completed, five (5) are in progress, as well as three (3) doctoral theses. Seven (7) Scientific Initiation Scholars (PIBIC), four (4) Extension Fellows (PIBEX), six (6) volunteer research and extension scholars, and five (5) Course Completion Works were selected.
