Palliative care in Parkinson's disease

Article indépendant

BELLOWS, Steven

Palliative care aims to alleviate suffering from symptoms not often addressed in typical clinic visits, including nonmotor symptoms, psychosocial and caregiver burden, and advanced care planning. Palliative care is appropriate at any point in Parkinson's disease, but hospice care is an important potential therapy for end-of-life care. Palliative care remains underutilized, and work is underway on developing palliative care delivery models.
