An update on palliative care in neurocritical care : Providing goal-concordant care in the face of prognostic uncertainty
Article indépendant
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: We investigate the complexities and interplay between the concepts of prognostic uncertainty and patient preferences as they relate to the delivery of goal-concordant care to patients with severe acute brain injuries (SABI) in the Neurological Intensive Care Unit (Neuro-ICU).
RECENT FINDINGS: Patients with SABI in the Neuro-ICU have unique palliative care needs due to sudden, often unexpected changes in personhood and quality of life. A substantial amount of uncertainty is inherent and poses a challenge to both the patient's prognosis and treatment preferences. The delivery of goal-concordant care can be difficult to achieve.
