| description | This work was carried out during 1 (one) year by a sign language interpreter at the child psychiatry ambulatory, at Unicamp's Hospital das Clínicas, for a 12-year-old female deaf patient, domiciled at the city of Sorocaba. The interpretation in medical settings is very recent, and constitutes one of the Translation Studies' great field branches in the sub-field "community interpretation". Professionals in this field, known as medical interpreters, are people who help patients who are not fluent in a country's official language to communicate with medical service providers in hospitals. The sign language interpreter (SLI)'s main task is to enable the communication between a medical professional and a deaf patient, who is a sign language user. Differently from the conference interpreting, in which the interpreter usually translates into one single language, the medical interpreter must be able to translate into and from both languages. The sign language interpreter's presence makes it possible for the deaf patient to understand and be understood by the medical professional. During the service, the SLI's presence enabled the deaf patient to be heard in her own language, without the presence of relatives, thus, she was free to express herself, creating a good relationship with the medical team, being able to be diagnosed and treated correctly, resulting in her discharge. |

Este trabalho foi realizado durante 1 (um) ano por uma intérprete de língua de sinais no ambulatório de psiquiatria infantil, do Hospital das Clinicas da Unicamp, para uma paciente surda de 12 anos, residente na cidade de Sorocaba. A interpretação em contextos médicos é bem recente e se constitui um dos ramos da grande área dos Estudos da Tradução na subárea “interpretação comunitária”. Os profissionais dessa área, conhecidos como intérpretes-médicos, são pessoas que auxiliam pacientes não-fluentes na língua oficial de um país a comunicar-se com provedores de serviços médicos hospitalares. A função principal do intérprete de língua de sinais-ILS é possibilitar a comunicação entre um profissional médico e um paciente surdo usuário da língua de sinais. E ao contrário da interpretação de conferência, na qual normalmente o intérprete converte para somente uma língua, o intérprete médico deve ser capaz de fazer a conversão de, e para as duas línguas. A presença do intérprete de língua de sinais faz com que se torne possível para o paciente surdo compreender e ser compreendido pelo profissional médico. Durante o atendimento a presença do ILS possibilitou à paciente surda ser ouvida na sua própria língua sem a presença de nenhum membro da família e assim teve liberdade para se expressar criando uma relação boa com a equipe médica podendo ser diagnosticada e medicada corretamente resultando na sua alta.
