Abstract (English):	The communication doctor - patient plays a fundamental role in their relationship. Bad communication can imply a negative influence between patient and his family. The aim of this work is to obtain better insight in the process of the information that is contributed by the medical oncologist and to check whether the patients remembers this information after fifteen days. The information we present corresponds with the second phase of the "descriptive study on the process of communicating the diagnosis and the prognosis in oncology". Cohort consisted in 71 cancer patients, who remembered the initial interview and performed a second one. The results obtained show that data collection is depending on the complexity of the transmitted information as well as of its emotional impact; which means that, the simpler and the more emotional impact, better to remember. Therefore this information supports the idea that communication is an evolutionary and continuing process, and is not limited to certain situations, being able to attend the needs both of the patient and his family, facilitating the patient a better adaptation to the oncological disease.

Abstract (Spanish):	La comunicación juega un papel fundamental en la relación médico-paciente. La mala comunicación así mismo, puede llegar a tener una influencia negativa en el paciente y sus familiares. El objetivo de este trabajo es profundizar en el proceso de información aportada por el médico oncólogo y el recuerdo que mantiene el paciente de dicha información transcurridos quince días. Los datos que presentamos se corresponden con la segunda fase del "estudio descriptivo sobre el proceso de comunicar el diagnóstico y el pronóstico en oncología". La muestra esta formada por 71 pacientes, todos ellos realizaron una segunda entrevista y recordaban la entrevista inicial. Los resultados obtenidos muestran que el recuerdo está en función de la complejidad de la información transmitida así como del impacto emocional de la misma; es decir, a mayor simplicidad y mayor impacto emocional, mejor recuerdo. Por tanto estos datos apoyan la necesidad de que la comunicación sea un proceso evolutivo, y continuado, y no se reduzca a un momento puntual, atendiéndose a las necesidades tanto del paciente como de sus familiares, facilitándose así una mejor adaptación al proceso oncológico.
