Abstract
In this cross-sectional study, we assessed palliative care (PC) needs in older adults with dementia. Using the NECPAL CCOMS-ICO© 3.1 tool and comprehensive geriatric assessment, 16.25% of the 554 evaluated patients required PC, which had clinical frailty and a moderate stage of dementia. Advanced frailty was associated with the poorest prognosis, according to the PC-based stratification. Our findings support the use of PC assessment in dementia care, which focuses on a person-centered approach while minimizing unnecessary or ineffective treatments and meeting the real-world patient's needs. PC care may fulfill the multidimensional nature of dementia, shifting towards personalized palliative approaches.
评估痴呆症患者的姑息关怀需求:对一家老年记忆门诊中最年长人群的横断面分析。
在这项横断面研究中,我们评估了老年痴呆症患者的姑息关怀(PC)需求。通过使用 NECPAL CCOMS-ICO© 3.1 工具和综合老年病评估,554 名接受评估的患者中有 16.25% 需要姑息治疗,这些患者都有临床虚弱和中度痴呆的症状。根据基于 PC 的分层,晚期虚弱与最差的预后有关。我们的研究结果支持在痴呆症护理中使用 PC 评估,它侧重于以人为本的方法,同时最大限度地减少不必要或无效的治疗,并满足现实世界中患者的需求。PC护理可满足痴呆症的多维性,转向个性化的姑息治疗方法。
