Abstract

Context. Episodic breathlessness causes additional distress to breathless patients with advanced disease, but management isstill insufficient and there is a lack of knowledge on effective coping strategies.Objectives. The aim was to explore patients’ self-management strategies for episodic breathlessness.Methods. In-depth interviews with patients suffering from episodic breathlessness as a result of chronic heart failure,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer, or motor neuron disease were conducted. Interviews were transcribedverbatim and analyzed guided by the analytic hierarchy of Framework analysis.Results. A total of 51 participants were interviewed (15 chronic heart failure, 14 chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, 13lung cancer, and nine motor neuron disease; age, mean [SD], 68 [12], 41% women, median Karnofsky index 60%). Theydescribed six main strategies for coping with episodes of breathlessness: reduction of physical exertion, cognitive andpsychological strategies, breathing techniques and positions, air and oxygen, drugs and medical devices, and environmentaland other strategies. Some strategies were used in an opposing way, e.g., concentrating on the breathing vs. distraction fromany thoughts of breathlessness or laying down flat vs. standing up and raising hands.Conclusion. Patients used a number of different strategies to cope with episodic breathlessness, adding more detailedunderstanding of existing strategies for breathlessness. The findings, therefore, may provide a valuable aid for health careproviders, affected patients, and their relatives.

Abstract

The causes of death in patients with neurodegenerative diseases are important information for patients and relatives because misleading information causes additional burdens. Early and frank discussion about disease progression, the causes of death, and end-of-life decisions might support the patient's and family's acceptance of the dying process and also helps physicians to frame treatment goals more explicitly. These goals include the place of death as well as medication administered at the end of life. The Liverpool Care Pathway provides a useful tool to standardize the care at the end of life that contributes to individual decisions and care plans. The prescription of medication at the end of life in various neurodegenerative diseases differs from treatment during the earlier phases of the diseases, not only because of swallowing difficulties but also in terms of symptom control.

Abstract

Publisher Summary This chapter presents a discussion on palliative care in the terminal stage of neurological diseases. Most palliative care specialists believe that the wish for physician-assisted death is strongly associated with the inadequate availabilty of the clinical services and interventions subsumed by the term "palliative care". Indeed, many specialists believe that optimal palliative care can abolish the call for active euthanasia in almost all instances. It is the poor availability of palliative care in most countries that should and could be changed rather than legalization of physician-assisted suicide or active euthanasia. The chapter includes definitions implying palliative care as an interdisciplinary, therapeutic approach that focuses on the comprehensive management of the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs of patients with progressive incurable illnesses and their families.Traditionally, palliative care has focused on end-of-life issues in the cancer population. Specialist-level palliative care has been practiced in hospices and palliative care units, where most patients are close to death from malignant neoplasms. The principles that guide palliative care clearly apply to the management of patients with progressive neurological disorders.
