End-of-life Care Clinical Trial
Official title:
Practice Analysis of Care, Paraclinical Exams and Treatments Received by Geriatric Patients Both During the Last Week and the Last 24 Hours of Their Lives.
End-of-life care is a core topic for geriatricians. One of the key aspects of end-of-life management is deciding when to discontinue active care measures (for example blood pressure monitoring, blood tests and X-rays) in favor of exclusive comfort care. In this retrospective observational study, the investigators looked at the care measures, treatments and paraclinical exams received by geriatric patients both one week and 24 hours before their death.
This analysis provides information on the differences in geriatric physicians' practices regarding the anticipation of the end of life, by showing on average when active care measures were stopped before death. Secondly, the investigators looked at patient criteria that could explain a prolongation of active care and a delay in the implementation of exclusive comfort care. ;
