Special Issue on Palliative Care


Palliative care is a multidisciplinary approach to providing medical and nursing care for patients with life-limiting diseases. As a special method of clinical care, palliative care mainly focuses on symptoms control, alleviating pain, nutrition support, supplemented by psychological care. Palliative care can not only reduce traumas of patients, but also extend the patients’ survival time and improve life quality. Palliative care is a very important part of cancer treatment.
