  • Family members' experiences of the impact of the LCP in a palliative care unit and a geriatric ward in Sweden
  • 2014

    • The Liverpool Care Pathway for the Dying Patient (LCP) was developed to transfer palliative care standards for the last hours or days of life, including family support, from hospice to other care settings. Aim: This study sought to explore family members' experiences of end-of-life care in a palliative care unit and in a general geriatric ward in Sweden before and after implementation of the LCP. Methods: Experiences were evaluated in relation to the goals of the LCP. Family members of patients deceased before and after implementation answered a questionnaire 3–6 months after the death. Comparisons between the samples were assessed by non-parametric tests. Results: There were significant differences concerning dialogue about existential issues that arise and about emotions and practical issues faced in bereavement. Significant improvements after the implementation of the LCP were reported in experiences regarding physicians' ability to listen to family members' concerns. Conclusion: The results suggest that using a structure such as that provided by the LCP may improve communication between physicians and the families of dying patients.

    • Background: Psychological interventions, such as relaxation training, have been applied to strengthen resistance to disease. There is evidence that relaxation can modify immune parameters in healthy populations and in chemotherapy naive cancer patients.

  • Continuous deep sedation, physician-assisted suicide, and euthanasia in Huntington's disorder
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: International journal of palliative nursing. - : Mark Allen Group. - 1357-6321 .- 2052-286X. ; 16:11, s. 527-33
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Aim: To investigate the attitudes among Swedish physicians and the general public towards continuous deep sedation (CDS) as an alternative treatment for a competent, not imminently dying patient with Huntington’s disorder requesting physician-assisted suicide (PAS) and euthanasia. Design: A questionnaire was distributed to 1200 physicians in Sweden and 1201 individuals in Stockholm. It consisted of three parts: 1) A vignette about a competent patient with Huntington’s disease requesting PAS. When no longer competent, relatives request euthanasia on behalf of the patient. Responders were asked about their attitudes towards these requests and whether CDS would be an acceptable alternative. 2) General questions about PAS and euthanasia. 3) Background variables. Results: The response rate was 56% (physicians) and 52% (general public). The majority of the general public and a fairly large proportion of physicians reported more liberal views on CDS than are expressed in current Swedish and international recommendations. Conclusion: In light of the results, we suggest that there is a need for a broader discussion about the recommendations for CDS, with a special focus on the needs of patients with progressive neurodegenerative disorders.

  • Symptoms in advanced cancer: relationship to endogenous cortisol levels
  • 2003
  • Ingår i: Palliative medicine. - : SAGE Publications. - 0269-2163 .- 1477-030X. ; 17:6, s. 503-508
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We investigated a possible relationship between levels of endogenous cortisol and severity of different symptoms in patients with advanced cancer. Twenty-three patients with predominantly gastrointestinal cancer, recruited in a palliative care unit, entered the study. Urinary free cortisol (UFC) was measured together with demographic data, blood parameters, tumour burden, concurrent illness, medication, nutritional status and quality of life. Significant positive correlations were found between levels of endogenous cortisol and appetite loss, fatigue and nausea/vomiting. The findings support the view of a chronic stress condition in advanced cancer. Interaction between cytokines and the hypothalamicpituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis may also be important in the interpretation of the results.

  • Palliative day care--a study of well-being and health-related quality of life
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: Palliative medicine. - : SAGE Publications. - 1477-030X .- 0269-2163. ; 23:5, s. 441-447
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Aim The aim of the study was to study the outcomes of palliative day care, in terms of health-related quality of life and the emotional well-being of cancer patients participating in a palliative day care programme for a period of five weeks, compared with a group of palliative cancer patients not participating in day-care. Methods The day care sample comprised of patients in a palliative day care programme delivered in two different day care facilities. Participants in the comparison group were recruited from a palliative home care service facility. All patients had a cancer diagnosis. The participants were invited to respond to two questionnaires once a week for a period of five weeks; the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-30) and the Mood Adjective List (MACL). Results The participants in the day care group and the comparison group reported similar levels of perceived functioning and symptoms, as measured by the EORTC QLQ-30, with no significant differences between the groups. However, the day care group reported higher levels of emotional well-being as measured by the MACL than the comparison group reported, although these differences were not statistically significant.

  • Long-term effects of widowhood after terminal cancer: a Swedish nationwide follow-up
  • 2003
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian journal of public health. - : SAGE Publications. - 1403-4948 .- 1651-1905. ; 31:1, s. 31-36
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Aims: The authors investigated whether becoming a widow after the death of a husband from cancer results in long-term psychological or physical morbidity. Method: In April and May 1999, an attempt was made to contact all of the 506 women who were living with men dying of prostate cancer in 1996 or of urinary bladder cancer in 1995 or 1996, as well as 287 population controls. Results: Completed questionnaires were received from 379 of the widows and 220 of the controls. Widowhood was associated with a low or moderate subjective quality of life (relative risk [RR]=1.4, 95% confidence interval 1.2—1.7), low or moderate psychological well-being (RR=1.8, 1.4—2.3), anxiety (RR=1.9, 1.3—2.7), depression (RR=2.2, 1.6—2.9), sleep disturbances (RR=1.9, 1.5—2.4), diabetes (RR=3.5, 1.2—7.9), and economic dissatisfaction (RR=1.6, 1.3—2.0). Conclusion: An excess risk of psychological morbidity, diabetes mellitus and dissatisfaction with the economic situation was found in the widowed population.
