- Abstract
Palliative care has arisen in medicine in order to optimize the medical care offered to patients, aiming at the relief of symptoms and holistic care for the individual rather than the disease. Because it is a relatively new specialty, professionals in this field often face situations that cannot be explained simply by technoscientific knowledge. Based on an experience report, this article aims to reflect on the circumstances involved in the pre-death period.
