Palliative medicine : 10 years as an area of medical practice in Brazil

Article

TAVARES DE CARVALHO, Ricardo | CORREA, Tulio Loyola

The World Health Organization (WHO) first defined Palliative Care (PC) in 1990, involving the practice as one of the focuses of cancer care (prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and PC). Since then, the concept was broadened in 2002 to include any life-threatening disease throughout its entire course, especially, but not only, in advanced and terminal diseases and end-of-life care.
