AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To assess the prognostic accuracy of the surprise question (SQ) when used by nurses working in hospital wards to determine 1-year mortality in acutely hospitalised older patients. BACKGROUND: The predictive accuracy of the SQ, when used by general nurses caring for older hospitalised patients, has not been comprehensively studied. DESIGN: A prospective cohort study. METHODS: This cohort study recruited consecutive 10,139 older patients (aged ≥65 years) who were admitted to Taipei City Hospital and were evaluated for the needs of palliative care in 2015...

BACKGROUND: EPIC (Empowering People to Independence in COPD) is a geriatric-palliative care telephonic, nurse coach intervention informed by Baltes' Theory of Successful Aging and adapted from the ENABLE (Educate, Nurture, Advise, Before Life Ends) intervention. EPIC, focused on improving independence, mobility, well-being, and COPD symptoms, has undergone formative and summative evaluation for adults with COPD. METHODS: The primary study aim is to assess the refined EPIC intervention's feasibility and acceptability via a pilot hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomized control trial in community-dwelling older adults with moderate to severe COPD and their family caregivers...

Kidney disease is associated with a high physical and psychological symptom burden. For patients whose condition is more compromised, receiving dialysis as a life-sustaining therapy may not improve longevity or quality of life. Palliative care for patients with kidney disease (also termed kidney supportive care [KSC]) is appropriate for this patient population. Nephrology nurses working in dialysis are well positioned to talk with patients about what patients perceive constitutes a meaningful life or death...

BACKGROUND: Previous research found that healthcare professionals had low preparedness for palliative care. Thus, it is necessary to explore healthcare professionals' self-efficacy. The Swedish Self-Efficacy in Palliative Care Scale (SEPC-SE) evaluates readiness in communication, patient management and multidisciplinary teamwork; however, it should be tested on a larger population. Furthermore, the constructs of the SEPC-SE should be compared to that of the original SEPC. AIM: This study aimed to evaluate the consensus between the construct validity and reliability of the SEPC and the translated and adapted SEPC-SE...

INTRODUCTION: Palliative care significantly improves the distressing symptoms of patients, especially those with cancer, heart disease, renal disease, and liver disease. The need for palliative care is increasing worldwide due to the growing burden of chronic disease. Nurses with an unfavorable attitude towards palliative care cannot skillfully assess the patient's needs, do not communicate effectively, and do not address the patient's problems adequately. Therefore, this study was aimed to assess the nurse's level of attitude towards palliative care in Ethiopia...

OBJECTIVES: The provision of palliative care in nursing homes (NHs) is of paramount importance, a realism underscored by the frailty and medical complexity of the residents. However, palliative care (PC) education tends to be resource-intensive both for educators and healthcare workers (HCWs). The aim of this study was to investigate how PowerFacts, a video animation series that taught basic PC to NH HCWs in Singapore impacted their knowledge, attitudes and confidence. METHODS: A cohort study design was adopted for the study...

Multidimensional, chronic, progressive and incurable, Parkinson's disease is, by definition, a palliative disease, and this from the moment of diagnosis. This vision, relatively new to neurology, calls for a paradigm shift, as well as a dual medical-paramedical and home-hospital alliance. This approach allows us to better understand the specificities of Parkinson's disease and its treatments in terms of palliative issues.

OBJECTIVES: Pain management is critical for nurses; therefore, knowledge assessment is also critical. The Knowledge and Attitudes Survey Regarding Pain (KASRP), designed for testing pain management knowledge among nurses, finds widespread use internationally; yet, key validity evidence according to American Psychological Association standards is missing. Therefore, this study aimed to translate and test the psychometric traits of KASRP based on an item response theory model. METHODS: Cronbach's α was included to assess internal consistency, and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was included to assess the total score normal distribution goodness of fit...

BACKGROUND: Nurses have an essential role in caring for end-of-life patients. Nevertheless, the nurse's involvement in the passive euthanasia decision-making process is insufficient and lower than expected. OBJECTIVES: To explore factors associated with nurses' intention to be involved in non-treatment decisions (NTD) regarding passive euthanasia decision-making versus their involvement in the palliative care of patients requesting euthanasia, using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) framework...
