Attitudes and Desires Related to Euthanasia and Physician-Assisted Suicide Among Terminally Ill Patients and Their Caregivers
[ PUBLICATION ]
CONTEXT: Euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide (PAS) are highly controversial issues. While there are studies of seriously ill patients' interest in euthanasia and PAS, there are no data on the attitudes and desires of terminally ill patients regarding these issues.
OBJECTIVE: To determine the attitudes of terminally ill patients toward euthanasia and PAS, whether they seriously were considering euthanasia and PAS for themselves, the stability of their desires, factors associated ...

OBJECTIVE: To examine clinicians' and parents' reflections on pediatric intensive care unit family conferences in the context of discussion about end-of-life care decision making.
DESIGN: Retrospective qualitative study.
SETTING: A university-based hospital.
PARTICIPANTS: Eighteen parents of children who died in the pediatric intensive care unit and 48 pediatric intensive care unit clinicians (physicians, nurses, social workers, child-life specialists, chaplains, and case ...

OBJECTIVES: To assess the association between implementation of the Patient Self-Determination Act (PSDA) and (1) the use of formal, written advance directives, (2) the use of informal advance care arrangements, and (3) discussions between patients and their physicians and proxies an advance care planning and end-of-life treatment preferences.
DESIGN: A time-sequence study in which patients discharged from acute care hospitals 1 month before the implementation of the PSDA and 5 months ...

Hospital Informed Consent for Procedure Forms: Facilitating Quality Patient-Physician Interaction
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: Informed consent forms should document and reflect the goals of informed consent and shared decision making. We conducted this study to examine the extent to which informed consent for procedure forms meet accepted informed consent standards, how well state informed consent statutes correlate with these standards, and whether existing forms can enhance the interactions between patients and physicians or other health care providers.
HYPOTHESIS: Informed consent forms do not ...

Understanding economic and other burdens of terminal illness: the experience of patients and their caregivers.
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: Terminal illness imposes substantial burdens--economic and otherwise--on patients and caregivers. The cause of these burdens is not understood.
OBJECTIVE: To determine the mechanism for economic and noneconomic burdens of terminal illness and to identify potential ameliorating interventions.
DESIGN: In-person interviews of terminally ill patients and their caregivers.
SETTING: Six randomly selected U.S. sites: Worcester, Massachusetts; St. Louis, Missouri; Tucson, Arizona; ...

BACKGROUND: Noncancer pain and cognitive impairment affect many older adults and each is associated with functional disability, but their combined impact has yet to be rigorously studied.
METHODS: This is a cross-sectional analysis of the Canadian Study of Health and Aging. Pain was collapsed from a 5-point to a dichotomous scale (no and very mild vs moderate and greater). Cognitive status was dichotomized from the Modified Mini-Mental State Examination (0-100) to no (>77) or ...

Talking With Terminally Ill Patients and Their Caregivers About Death, Dying, and Bereavement: Is It Stressful? Is It Helpful?
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: Discussing end-of-life issues with terminally ill patients is often considered distressing and harmful. This study was conducted to assess whether interviewing terminally ill patients and their caregivers about death, dying, and bereavement is stressful and/or helpful.
METHODS: Patients from 6 sites in the United States who were estimated to have 6 months or less to live were interviewed in person and reinterviewed 2 to 6 months later. Their caregivers were interviewed ...

Assistance from Family Members, Friends, Paid Care Givers, and Volunteers in the Care of Terminally Ill Patients
[ PUBLICATION ]
BACKGROUND: In addition to medical care, dying patients often need many types of assistance, including help with transportation, nursing care, homemaking services, and personal care. We interviewed terminally ill adults and their care givers in six randomly selected areas of the United States (five metropolitan areas and one rural county) to determine how their needs for assistance were met and the frequency with which they received such assistance from family members and paid and ...

BACKGROUND. Advance directives for medical care and the designation of proxy decision makers to guide medical care after a patient has become incompetent have been widely advocated but little studied. We investigated the attitudes of patients toward planning, perceived barriers to such planning, treatment preferences in four hypothetical scenarios, and the feasibility of using a particular document (the Medical Directive) in the outpatient setting to specify advance directives.
METHODS: ...

PURPOSE: Palliative medicine is assuming an increasingly important role in patient care. Yet, most physicians did not learn this during their formal training. The Education for Physicians in End-of-life Care (EPEC) Project aims to increase physician knowledge in palliative care by disseminating the EPEC Curriculum through a train-the-trainer approach. An assessment of its use to help the project reach its targets was performed.
METHOD: An independent evaluation pursued a two-step ...

OBJECTIVE: We sought to develop and validate a novel palliative medicine needs assessment tool for patients with cancer in the emergency department.
METHODS: An expert panel trained in palliative medicine and emergency medicine reviewed and adapted a general palliative medicine symptom assessment tool, the Needs at the End-of-Life Screening Tool. From this adaptation a new 13-question instrument was derived, collectively referred to as the Screen for Palliative and End-of-life care needs ...

Background: Advance directives are intended to extend patient autonomy into periods of mental incompetence. However, for advance directives to fulfill this objective, patients' choices must be reasonably consistent over time. Thus, we assessed the stability of the advance treatment decisions of patients and members of the public.Methods: In a prospective cohort study of 495 outpatients and 102 members of the public, we studied the stability of scenario- and treatment-specific choices. ...
