Abstract:

This chapter examines how depression may affect a patient’s ability to make life-shortening decisions within the setting of care near the end of life, as well as a clinician’s willingness to support the patient’s preferences (that is, respecting his autonomy). It considers how the suspicion of depression can make the physician pause even when the obvious choice would be to support the patient’s decision. It also describes some of the defining features of depression, including hopelessness, suicidal ideation, and desire for hastened death. The chapter first reviews depression and similar clinical conditions in the context of end-of-life care before discussing the construct of capacity and the elements of its assessment. It then considers evidence on the relationship between depression and decisional capacity before concluding with suggestions to help guide decision-making.

Abstract:

This article proposes an alternative approach to caring for dying persons at the end of life based on three aspects of care—embodied, compassionate, and communal—that have strong roots in the Catholic-Christian theological tradition. Before explaining the theological rationale for an embodied, compassionate, and communal focus in end-of-life care, it considers a number of key concepts in Catholicism-Christianity that provide an important supplement or corrective to the current overemphasis on patient autonomy, which almost exclusively centers on preference or choice. It then discusses the advantages of adopting themes from a Catholic-Christian understanding of death, particularly in the context of palliative care. The article goes on to examine embodiment as the basis of compassionate care within the community and makes the case for compassion as a fundamental element of a spiritual approach to patient care at the end of life.

Abstract:

This chapter examines the empirical evidence related to the reasons for the rising healthcare costs, particularly on end-of-life care and the elderly. It evaluates empirical evidence related to people’s preferences in end-of-life care, providing the foundation for a claim that end-of-life care preferences are varied, which therefore calls for a wide conception of autonomy and choice when it comes to end-of-life care decisions. However, given that the quality end-of-life care is generally poor and costs are high, a conception of autonomy is needed that promotes quality improvement and controls costs. This chapter proposes a conception of soft paternalism and choice architecture that provides palliative care as a default choice for people with serious and chronic diseases. The limitations of this proposal are discussed, including significant cost and resources implications.

Abstract:

Advance Care Planning (ACP) is an essential part of quality end of life care in the UK and in most developed countries, enabling more people to live well and die well as they would choose. In the context of the ageing population, with increasing possibilities for medical interventions, ACP is an crucial consideration, with important implications for the individual person and their family and for our wider population. This book takes a comprehensive look at the subject, helps readers explore a wide range of issues and practicalities in providing ACP; frames the purpose, process, and outcomes; provides updates on national and international research, policy, and practice and includes contributions from experts from around the world. Death will affect us all; it is the one certainty in life. Yet the subject of death remains something of a taboo, we rarely discuss what our preferences would be at end of life, what we would want, where we would want to be cared for, not even with loved ones.

Abstract:

A population-based approach takes account of the needs of the people within a given population. A key aspect of this is reducing unwarranted variation and addressing both the underuse of high-value interventions and the overuse of low-value interventions. In the context of end-of-life care, high-value interventions are those that enhance quality of life. In contrast, low-value interventions are those that are futile, those that negatively impact on quality of life, and those that are not in line with the person’s wishes. Advance care planning (ACP) is a means by which a person can document their choices at the end of life; it supports person-centred care and also facilitates the redistribution of investment from low-value to high-value interventions.
