Palliative and end-of-life approaches in the ICU, and respiratory support unit

We are delighted to announce this joint free webinar, which will tackle different aspects of end-of-life care. For 'terminal' patients not admitted to the ICU, the palliation of ARF symptoms should be one of the “must” for physicians facing the dilemma of end-of-life decisions. In the ICUs, interprofessional teams can decide to forgo life-sustaining therapies.  The overall incidence of these practices varies widely from centre to centre. As a result, meeting the needs of patients and their families has become a significant challenge. LEARNING OUTCOMES Upon attendance of this webinar, you will understand more about:  • the goal of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) as a palliative tool • the indications and contra-indications of NIV • the variability in end-of-life decision across ICUs • improving communication skills with both patients and family members • involving the interprofessional team as a quality indicator for optimal decision-making.
