Global geriatric palliative care

Article indépendant

RAJABALEE, Nafiisah B. M. H. | JOSEPH, Augustin | TAPPER, Corey X.

Global palliative medicine is a priority for global health. The aging world population lives with multiple chronic diseases and malignancies that often lead to debility, morbidity, mortality, and decreased quality of life. In the United States, 68% of adults aged older than 65 years live with 2 or more chronic conditions. Endeavors to improve access to palliative care for seniors are ongoing within "age-friendly health systems." This review article aims to provide an overview of the present state of global geriatric palliative care and to identify potential areas for future improvement.
