Palliative care is a field of medicine that focuses on (among other things) symptom management, and communication and support. Palliative care principles have relevance throughout the ICU continuum, from serious illness prior to ICU admission, to the ICU itself, and into the bereavement period. In this lecture, we will review the ways in which the principles of palliative care can be integrated into the care of the critically ill, and look at some of the important studies of palliative care interventions in the ICU environment.
