Background
Loss of a loved one is a distressing event that
may result in grief characterized by emotional distress, longing
of the dead, and dysfunctionality. Persistent complex bereave-
ment disorder (PCBD) is differentiated by extended and damaging
bereavement
[1] , which is being treated by some with EMDR
[2] . In
this study, the effects of an EMDR session on a patient with PCBD
will be analyzed.
Case
G.Ö. (45) is a married housewife who had been working,
mother of a kid and a baby. She has lived with her family and her
mother in a metropolitan city until her mother died a year ago,
unexpectedly. Then, she quitted her job and they moved in a small
city upon her husband’s wish. The inpatient had complaints such
as active suicidal thoughts, marital dissatisfaction and an ongoing
deep sadness. EMDR therapy is applied on her grief and dysfunc-
tional beliefs.
Conclusion
After one session of EMDR, her mood improved, her
ruminations declined, she sought job, and became hopeful for
the future. In our case, even one session of EMDR let remarkable
improvements on PCBD. Indeed, as for other trauma-related issues,
EMDR therapy can be utilized on PCBD.

Introduction
In traditional medicine curriculum, internship is
the moment in which students experience medical practice more
intensively. Attitudes can be considered predictors of behaviors and
actions. Evaluate them contributes to improve medical graduation.
Objective
Evaluate medical internship attitudes, considering
medical practice and associated factors in a Brazilian public uni-
versity.
Methods
Cross-sectional study with 69 students, using a struc-
tured questionnaire and an attitude scale. Descriptive statistic was
carried out, classification of the attitude tendency, group analysis
(‘clusters’) and F statistic.
Results
The average age was 25.1 and 56.5% were male. Students
presented positive attitudes towards four from six aspects and neg-
ative attitudes toward death.
Conclusion
Results suggest the necessity of educational interven-
tion, which follows the educational objectives.

Introduction
Parental schizophrenia will potentially cause dys-
function in mother-child relationships, and it will also cause
difficulty in adapting to motherhood.
Objectives
We aim to study the implications of the relation-
ship between mothers with schizophrenia and their children.
The psychosocial environment and the impact of dysfunctional
relationship in social skills development may cause behavioral dis-
orders in children and further development of severemental illness
taking into account genetic factors and biopsychosocial factors.
Methods
Non systematic literature review, through the Pubmed
and Medline database, with time constraints.
Results
The development of schizophrenia is related to genetic
and environmental factors. Children of parents with schizophrenia
are at increased risk of developing psychiatric disorder compared
to the general population. It was found early behavioral disorders,
starting between 5 and 8 years old and the difficulties in social
interaction may arise at this age and remain until adulthood.
Conclusions
It is important to assess the level of acquisition of
social skills in children and families when there is a direct rela-
tionship with schizophrenia. It may be important in the future,
monitorize the development of these children, as well as be aware
of the surrounding social and family environment, to identify and
manage early in the presence of behavioral disorders and possible
development of serious mental illness. An early intervention at the
level of social deficits in children can be a preventive intervention
of later schizophrenia development.
