Area of Science:

  • Neonatal medicine
  • Palliative care
  • Medical ethics

Background:

  • Neonatal palliative care (NPC) emerged in the medical literature in the early 1980s.
  • NPC was first formally defined in 2002 by Catlin and Carter.
  • NPC represents a novel approach within neonatal pediatrics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a conceptual definition for neonatal palliative care (NPC).
  • To establish a consistent approach for advancing NPC.
  • To encompass all essential concepts within a unified definition.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive review of existing neonatal palliative care (NPC) literature.
  • Thematic analysis was employed to identify recurring concepts.
  • Patterns of meaning within NPC definitions were analyzed.

Main Results:

  • Key themes identified include philosophies of care, support systems, and cultural/spiritual considerations.
  • The role of the healthcare team and clinical management strategies were significant findings.
  • Analysis revealed core components essential for defining NPC.

Conclusions:

  • Maintaining quality of life is central to neonatal palliative care (NPC).
  • Ethical and humane care, facilitating a "good death," is paramount.
  • The proposed comprehensive definition integrates extensive elements for conceptual clarity.
