  • Descrição: This study aimed to understand the process of the bad news communication in the context of the Intensive Care Unit for adults, from the perspective of the doctors. It was configured as a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive research. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and observation recorded in daily field. Participated 12 doctors in a teaching hospital of Rio Grande do Sul. The analysis was performed through the content analysis. The results highlight the difficulties of the doctors to communicate bad news, as well as the use of defense mechanisms to accomplish this task. It is necessary to recover the importance of reflection on the doctor-family relationship as daily practice as important to the medicine.
