Abstract:
The idea of modern palliative care goes back to the times of Dame Cicely Mary Strode Saunders in 1967, a British nurse and physician. Modern palliative care is a multimodal therapeutic and supportive concept for the patient, when curative care has failed or seems to be not reasonable. In this article we review the basics of current palliative care and focus in particular on specific medicamentous therapy during the final episode of life.
