End-of-Life Care concepts in intensive care

An ESICM Talk powered by the NEXT and N&AHPs Committee

 

End-of-life care is an approach to a terminally ill patient that shifts the focus of care to symptom control, comfort, dignity, quality of life, and quality of dying rather than treatments aimed at cure or prolongation of life.

A detailed description of the concept of the end of life care and as well how to deal with end-of-life situations are discussed in the podcast.
