Area of Science:

  • Critical Care Medicine
  • Medical Ethics
  • Palliative Care

Background:

  • Surveys indicate ICU residents perceive deficiencies in end-of-life care, symptom management, and confidence with dying patients.
  • Lack of formal training may hinder meeting the needs of terminally ill patients and their families.
  • This study addresses the need for improved training in critical care settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess junior intensivists' perceptions of triage and the quality of the dying process.
  • To evaluate the impact of formal academic training on these perceptions.
  • To identify factors influencing perceptions of end-of-life care.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2007 (before training) and 2012 (after training).
  • The study included 430 junior intensivists.
  • Participants were interviewed regarding their experiences and perceptions.

Main Results:

  • A significantly higher percentage of intensivists received dedicated ethics and palliative care training in 2012 (38.5%) compared to 2007 (17.4%).
  • In 2012, fewer intensivists reported discomfort and uncertainty regarding life-sustaining treatment limitations (17.7% vs. 39.1%) and triage (48.5% vs. 69.4%).
  • Physician's age and male sex were associated with positive perceptions; anxiety about family reactions and lack of training were linked to negative perceptions.

Conclusions:

  • Formal training in ethics and palliative care is associated with improved perceptions of the dying process.
  • Such training can decrease uncertainty and discomfort among junior intensivists.
  • Enhanced training may lead to better end-of-life care in intensive care units.
