Abstract

Background: The perspective of palliative care has changed dynamically over the years, and palliative medicine, which was originally concerned with patients with advanced oncology diseases, has become an interdisciplinary area. Many societies have published guidelines for the use of palliative medicine in intensive care units. Method(s): This article presents indications and methods for implementing the principles of palliative medicine in intensive care units. Particular attention is devoted to the consultations of palliative medicine for current medical trends - COVID-19 infection, oncological diseases, fragility syndrome, and end-stage circulatory failure. Conclusion(s): Elements of palliative medicine are necessary for everyday practices in the intensive care unit. The most important task in cooperation is to present classifications that can help in the objective identification of patients requiring palliative care. It seems that creating a checklist of the qualifications for a palliative medicine consultation can be the next step towards making decisions about this form of therapy. Copyright © Via Medica.

重症监护室姑息医学的几个方面：叙述性综述

背景:多年来，姑息治疗的观点发生了动态变化，最初关注晚期肿瘤患者的姑息医学已经成为一个跨学科的领域。许多协会已经发布了在重症监护病房使用姑息医学的指导方针。方法:本文介绍了在重症监护病房实施姑息医学原则的适应症和方法。特别关注针对当前医疗趋势(COVID-19感染、肿瘤疾病、脆弱性综合征和终末期循环衰竭)的姑息医学咨询。结论:在重症监护病房的日常实践中，姑息医学的要素是必要的。合作中最重要的任务是提出有助于客观识别需要姑息治疗的患者的分类。看来，制定一份姑息医学咨询资格清单可能是决定这种治疗形式的下一步。版权所有©Via Medica。
