摘要

生命末期的人工营养支持被认为是无益的。当病人濒临死亡时，拒绝营养是家庭和医护人员面临的一个有争议和道德困境。对家人来说，喂食是向亲人表达爱和感情的一种方式，看到亲人因饥饿和干渴而痛苦地死去，对他们来说是很痛苦的。因此，卫生保健工作者需要就人工营养在生命末期的利弊向家庭提供咨询。家属必须被告知病人的其他舒适方式，如口腔护理，提供背部按摩，或在临终时与病人互动的嘴唇湿润。

Nourishment or Punishment: Nutrition support towards the end of life

Artificial nutrition support during the end-of-life is deemed non-beneficial. Withholding nutrition when the patient is near death is a controversial and ethical dilemma that families and healthcare workers face. For family, feeding is a source of showing love and affection to loved ones and it is distressing for them to see their loved one die painfully with hunger and thirst. Therefore, healthcare workers need to counsel families regarding the benefits and drawbacks of artificial nutrition toward the end of life. The family must be taught about alternative means of comfort for patients like mouth care, offering back massage, or moistening lips to interact with patients during end-of-life.
