Feasibility of an Advance Care Planning Intervention
Sponsor:

Strasbourg Europe Cancer Institute

Brief Summary:

Advanced Cancer patients hospitalized in a Cancer center inpatient unit have a dismal prognosis. Palliative Care interventions have shown multiple benefit for those patients, regarding quality of life, symptom management, illness understanding and aggressiveness of care criteria. Although Advance Care planning (ACP) is part of usual Palliative Care, specific interventions dedicated to ACP are understudied. This study aims at showing that a simple and systematic Advance Care Planning intervention is likely to clarify the understanding of the goals of care by patients, to help with ACP documentation and and potentially to modify the trajectory of illness for patients during and after hospitalization.
