Palliatif Nursing In ICU

Palliative care is a medical treatment that improves the quality of life of

patients suffering from serious illness, by helping to tailor treatment options to the
level of care they need.
To improve the use of palliative care teams in the ICU and raise awareness
of the principle of basic palliative care, a process is needed to more quickly
identify patients requiring palliative care consultation.
Publications focus on various aspects of starting a palliative care program
in ICU. A number of reports are recommended using guidelines offered by the
Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC). These CPGs follow the standards of
the National Quality Forum (NQF) in the Framework and Practices Desired for
Palliative Care and Hospice, and from the National Consensus Project for
Palliative Care Pure.
The steps drawn up by CPG are essential for the integration and
improvement of palliative care in certain health care settings. CPG conducts
interdisciplinary working groups to plan and lead businesses, assess needs and
resources to improve palliative care at a particular ICU, develop action plans to
address existing needs within the context of available resources, and engage
interdisciplinary ICU teams to create enhanced palliative care support .

Palliative care is increasingly accepted as a critical requirement of
comprehensive care for critically ill patients, regardless of the diagnosis or
prognosis, since admission to ICU. The lack of care for the palliative care team
and the need to improve overall understanding of its care thereby encouraging
literature searches on methods to begin a new palliative care program. In this case
focuses on various aspects of starting a palliative care program in ICU.
 The IPAL-ICU Project is a Web-based resource sponsored by the National
Institute on Aging, the CAPC, and the major critical care societies and other
nationally funded groups such as the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Critical
Care End-of-life Peer Work¬group. It was designed to offer a framework, along
with practi¬cal steps, for the development of a palliative care initiative in an ICU.
Together, these resources enable initiatives to be based on the ICU’s individual
needs, and customized to their specific environment.

Despite the numerous resources available, the IPAL-ICU project

guidelines were an effective tool and provided specific tailored recommendations
toward initiating a palliative care program in an ICU. The successful use of these
guidelines resulted in the integration of palliative care standards and the
incorporation of basic palliative care principles into the daily routine in our ICU.
