- W1973559431 abstract "A 64-year-old woman with recurrent mitral valve stenosis was hospitalized 30 years after open commissurotomy. Severe right cerebral embolism occurred at age 58, with left hemiparesis. She was debilitated with cardiac cachexia. Based on symptomatic valvular disease findings, surgery was considered, but deemed too high risk due to the combined insufficiencies. She refused this surgical operation and requested conservative therapy. Optimized medication and cardiac rehabilitation improved her general condition allowing transfer to another hospital. We explained the short life expectancy both to her and to her family. They decided to transfer to a hospice at a chronic care hospital and she was given best supportive care. Eventually, her urine output decreased and respiration deteriorated. She and her family refused resuscitation in the event of cardiopulmonary arrest, requesting only suffering reduction. Thus, continuous intravenous infusion of morphine was started. The optimized doses for pain alleviation were determined in consultation with palliative care specialists and maximized her consciousness level for the last four days.“Heart-failure hospice” is potentially a place to die for end-of-life patients, attended by their families and healthcare providers. They need prognostic information and options for end-stage. Our experience confirms results about palliative care from previous studies conducted overseas demonstrating the effectiveness of opioids relieving end-stage symptoms.<Learning objective: Perform an appropriate end-of-life assessment for patients with irreversible severe heart failure. Formulate appropriate plans for further evaluation and management, including referral and consultation to palliative care specialists when necessary. Develop an appropriate regional cooperation, with consideration given to the less common optional treatment for cardiac dysfunction, “heart-failure hospice.”>" @default.
