  • Pediatric palliative care (PPC) emphasizes patient-and-family-centered care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the applicability of SDM in pediatric palliative care.
  • To highlight how SDM aligns with the core principles of PPC.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual discussion of SDM principles within the PPC context.
  • Analysis of how SDM facilitates the clarification of patient and family goals and values.
  • Examination of the iterative and cross-environment nature of SDM in PPC.

Main Results:

  • SDM is highly applicable and beneficial in PPC.
  • The SDM process helps elaborate the patient and family narrative.
  • Decisions in PPC integrate medical evidence with unique patient/family attributes.

Conclusions:

  • SDM is a vital component of effective pediatric palliative care.
  • Implementing SDM enhances patient- and family-centered care in PPC.
  • SDM supports informed decision-making by combining evidence with personal values.
