Résumé<br />
La maladie d’Alzheimer entraîne une perte d’autonomie et une dépendance. L’ai<strong>de</strong> qui se met<br />
alors en place, souvent familiale, provoque un glissement <strong>de</strong> la communication avec le<br />
mé<strong>de</strong>cin, du <strong>patient</strong> vers l’<strong>aidant</strong>. Nous avons étudié cette relation mé<strong>de</strong>cin-<strong>patient</strong>-<strong>aidant</strong> en<br />
nous appuyant sur la recherche qualitative, organisant à Paris <strong>de</strong>s focus groups <strong>de</strong> <strong>mé<strong>de</strong>cins</strong><br />
généralistes, d’<strong>aidant</strong>s et dix entretiens individuels <strong>de</strong> <strong>patient</strong>s. La confrontation <strong>de</strong>s<br />
expériences a mis en lumière <strong>de</strong>s difficultés concernant le déroulement <strong>de</strong> la consultation, la<br />
gestion du temps, l’i<strong>de</strong>ntification et l’évaluation <strong>de</strong> l’<strong>aidant</strong>, la gestion <strong>de</strong>s conflits, le respect<br />
du secret médical, le droit du <strong>patient</strong> à l’information et au respect <strong>de</strong> son consentement. Ainsi,<br />
l’amélioration <strong>de</strong> la prise en charge du <strong>patient</strong> et <strong>de</strong> son entourage passe par la résolution <strong>de</strong><br />
chacune <strong>de</strong> ces difficultés en tenant compte <strong>de</strong>s réalités <strong>de</strong> l’exercice quotidien et en replaçant<br />
la relation dans son contexte éthique, déontologique et juridique.<br />

Abstract<br />
The doctor-<strong>patient</strong>-caregiver relationship in Alzheimer’s disease<br />
Qualitative survey based on <strong>patient</strong> interviews,<br />
and on family doctors and family caregivers focus groups<br />
Alzheimer’s disease leads to <strong>de</strong>pen<strong>de</strong>ncy and a loss of autonomy. As care arrangements are<br />
ma<strong>de</strong>, often involving family members, there is a shift from a doctor-<strong>patient</strong> relationship to a<br />
doctor-caregiver one. We studied this doctor-<strong>patient</strong>-caregiver relationship using qualitative<br />
research, by organizing family doctors and caregivers focus groups in Paris, and ten <strong>patient</strong><br />
interviews. The analysis of experiences highlights the difficulties regarding consultation<br />
process, time management, caregivers’ i<strong>de</strong>ntification and assessment, conflict management,<br />
respect of <strong>patient</strong> confi<strong>de</strong>ntiality, <strong>patient</strong>s’ right to information and to consent. In or<strong>de</strong>r to<br />
improve the care given by family doctors to these <strong>patient</strong>s and their caregivers all of these<br />
difficulties need to be addressed, whilst also allowing for the realities of family doctors’ daily<br />
practice and consi<strong>de</strong>ring the relationship in an ethical, <strong>de</strong>ontological and legal context.<br />
Keywords : Alzheimer’s disease, doctor-<strong>patient</strong> relationship, doctor-caregiver relationship,<br />
