AbstractObjective:Because palliative care in sub-Saharan Africa may not fit the style of delivery of palliative care in the global north, exploring the evidence can serve to reduce existing barriers and help streamline national policies that determine the optimal setting to implement formal palliative and end-of-life services.Method:A search was conducted in Ovid MEDLINE®, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases using the search terms nursing care, terminal care, end of life care, palliative care, dying, death, hospice, opioids, morphine, Africa, sub-Saharan Africa, caregivers, and place of death

12006 Background: Few studies describe how early versus late palliative care affects end-of-life health services costs. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of early vs not-early palliative care among cancer decedents on the combined costs of receiving aggressive care (ED/hospitalization) and supportive care (home care/physician home visit). Methods: Using linked administrative databases, we created a retrospective cohort of cancer decedents between 2004 -2014 in Ontario, Canada. We identified those who received “early” palliative care (palliative care service used in the hospit

Background and Objectives: Estimating the need for palliative care for children is a crucial step in addressing the needs of children facing life-threatening conditions, while providing a powerful argument to combat unacceptably wide disparities in access to care. The need for palliative care for children in Romania remains insufficiently quantified. More accurate estimates are indispensable to assess the true extent of need and to support adequate policy responses.

Abstract:
Primary health care focuses on the public's needs for a sustainable healthy existence without placing any financial burden on patients in order to ensure the highest degree of health and well-being and their equitable distribution. When pain management and palliative care are incorporated into primary healthcare, patients' quality of life and satisfaction improve. Palliative care includes supportive medical care for patients at any stage of disease with the goals of symptom relief, pain control, stress management, carer respite, and enhancing the quality of life.

Abstract:
Determining the optimal dosing regimen for pediatric patients is a challenge due to the lack of dosing guidelines and studies. In addition, many developmental pharmacology changes that occur throughout childhood that have profound impacts on the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination of medications are commonly used in palliative care. Adding to that complexity, certain medications have different effects in the pediatric patient compared to the adult patient. Being aware of the pharmacokinetic changes, impact on neurodevelopment and unique medication factors that are present in

Data from Riskesdas showed that 51.28% of the elderly experienced health complaints and 25.99% of the elderly experienced illness. This can reduce the patient's quality of life. Therefore, integrated palliative care is needed for the elderly to improve the quality of life for patients and their families in dealing with health problems.

It is proposed this results from increased pro-nociceptive sensitivity following changes in central and peripheral neural pathways. While there is basic science and pre-clinical evidence supporting OIH, debate remains about its clinical relevance or even existence. The existence or otherwise of OIH has relevance for palliative care as many patients are prescribed opioids and the standard management
