Challenges with providing hospice care for patients undergoing long-term dialysis

Article indépendant

SCHELL, Jane O. | JOHNSON, Douglas S.

Older patients comprise the fastest growing population initiating dialysis. Many have coexisting conditions that affect their experience and survival. These patients spend their last days undergoing intensive therapies at a higher rate than with other life-limiting conditions. The majority of dialysis patients are hospitalized in their last month of life, where most will die. In our opinion, no population is more in need of quality end-of-life care than patients on dialysis. [1er paragraphe]
