| Popis: |
Advanced chronic respiratory diseases are prevalent and cause deterioration in quality of life, particularly chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diffuse interstitial lung diseases (ILD) and progressive neuromuscular diseases with diaphragmatic involvement (NMD). Those who suffer from them usually present persistent symptoms that are not always adequately controlled by the treatments recommended by the clinical management guidelines. Palliative treatment of persistent symptoms is a relevant point, but the palliative approach usually presents barriers to its implementation. This article offers a narrative review over Latin American perspective on the role of palliative care in advanced respiratory diseases. |
