[Integration of a palliative care approach in the management patients with polymorbidity]
Abstract:
The number of patients with multimorbidity is steadily increasing due to medical progress and increased life expectancy. A palliative approach may be offered to some of these patients. It includes the detection and management of somatic and mental symptoms, the management of social and spiritual problems, the anticipation of care and support of the relatives. Its main goal is to improve patient's quality of life and reduce interventions that are unnecessary, or undesired by patients themselves.
