Brief Summary
|
Project Title Palliative Care consultation in Emergency Department : A single centre
retrospective analysis
Background- Patients with advanced cancer present to the Emergency
Department (ED) with complex symptoms. Many patients at the end of life are
admitted to EDs and receive unwanted aggressive investigations and
interventions which may hamper the goals of care. Palliative Medicine
consultation in Emergency Department has shown to reduce symptom burden
in patients.
Aim- To determine the symptom profiles and outcome of patients referred for
specialist palliative care consultation in the Emergency Department.
Study Procedure- This is a retrospective analysis of medical records of
patient presenting to ED from July 2017 to June 2019.
Statistical analysis will be done to understand the frequency of symptom profile
and outcome.
Significance- The study will help us to understand the symptom profile of
terminally ill patients presenting to ED and the referral pattern and reasons for
new consultations in ED. This will help in formulating better care plans for
home- based care and anticipatory symptom management in these patients. |
