Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Health Equity
  • Palliative Care Research

Background:

  • Access to palliative care is a recognized human right, yet significant disparities persist.
  • Social contexts and systemic interactions negatively impact palliative care utilization.
  • Intersectionality offers a framework to understand and address these drivers of inequity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically identify and describe research that applies intersectionality to palliative care needs, access, and experiences.
  • To synthesize findings from studies examining the intersectional dimensions of palliative care.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive scoping review was conducted.
  • Searches included Medline, PsycINFO, CINAHL, and Google Scholar databases up to January 2023, supplemented by manual searching.
  • Included studies focused on palliative or end-of-life care and explicitly utilized intersectionality.

Main Results:

  • Ten relevant studies were identified and analyzed.
  • An analytical framework assessed the application of intersectionality within each study.
  • Common themes included power dynamics, heterogeneity within healthcare systems, and barriers to palliative care access.

Conclusions:

  • Current research employing intersectionality in palliative care is scarce.
  • Intersectionality provides valuable insights into inequities within palliative care.
  • Future palliative care research should integrate an intersectionality focus to better serve structurally marginalized populations.
