Book Description: When curing a disease is not possible and death is imminent, the effective clinician shifts to a palliative model of care to manage pain and symptoms while attempting to maximize the quality of life. This practical medical text offers the latest treatments in managing the end stage of chronic diseases. It was written by practicing clinicians and designed to help medical students, residents, and doctors with practical clinical decisions. A Clinician’s Guide to Palliative Care is an introduction to the multidisciplinary field of palliative care. Arranged in chapters by disease systems, the authors provide clinical guidelines as well as practical advice for the management of advanced disease. They review the assessment of prognosis (when is the illness is end-stage?), how to communicate and face tough decisions with patients and families, the role of hospice care and criteria for admission and the use and limitations of advance directives. Use it during medical school, residency, or in your practice. This useful introduction to the care of the dying patient will help you develop clinical judgment and a capability to provide comfort for the patient, the family, and all care-givers (including yourself).
