Palliation Versus Dialysis for End-Stage Renal Disease in the Oldest Old: What are the Considerations?
As the US population continues to age, new cases of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in individuals, aged 85 years or older (the oldest old), are increasing. Many patients who begin hemodialysis despite questionable benefit may struggle with high symptom burden and rapid functional decline. This article reviews the history regarding the funding and development of the Medicare ESRD program, reviews current approaches to the oldest old with ESRD, and considers strategies to improve the management approach of this vulnerable population.
期刊介绍:
Palliative Care and Social Practice is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes articles on all aspects of palliative care. It welcomes articles from symptom science, clinical practice, and health services research. However, its aim is also to publish cutting-edge research from the realm of social practice - from public health theory and practice, social medicine, and social work, to social sciences related to dying and its care, as well as policy, criticism, and cultural studies. We encourage reports from work with under-represented groups, community development, and studies of civic engagement in end of life issues. Furthermore, we encourage scholarly articles that challenge current thinking about dying, its current care models and practices, and current understandings of grief and bereavement. We want to showcase the next generation of palliative care innovation research and practice - in clinics and in the wider society. Relaunched in July 2019. Partnered with Public Health Palliative Care International (PHPCI) (Title 2008-2018: - Palliative Care: Research and Treatment)
