Palliativmedizin

Das Heidelberger Skript für Studierende der Medizin

What is Palliative Medicine / Palliative Care? What stresses are patients and their relatives exposed to in incurable and advanced disease situations? How can appropriate comprehensive treatment and support be managed? How can a decision to limit or continue therapeutic measures at the end of life be justified?

This script is intended to provide medical students and all interested parties with an insight into the necessities and possibilities of comprehensive palliative medical support and to be of assistance for reference and preparation for the palliative medicine examinations in QB 13 and the state examination.

Dr. Bernd Alt-Epping MD is Head of the Department of Palliative Medicine at the University Medical Hospital Heidelberg and Professor for Palliative Medicine at the University of Heidelberg.
