- Abstract
Palliative care was established as the fifth pillar of the German Society for Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine e. V. (DGAI). However, which role anaesthetists may play regarding the care of patients with palliative care needs, is not clear yet. Method An ad hoc email survey among members of the scientific working group "palliative medicine" of the Association of German Anaesthetists e.V. (BDA) and DGAI on Aug. 22, 2022, about the role of anaesthesiology in palliative medicine. The response to the single question "Is there a matter close to your heart that in your view should be mentioned here?" were analysed qualitatively according to Mayring [1]. Results Eleven of 39 registered addressees re-sponded. The three main categories were (1) self-perception of the professional task regarding palliative care (2) palliative care qualifications or palliative care training and continuing education, and (3) the effectiveness of anaesthesiology activities with regard to palliative care. Numerous aspects of anaesthesiological competence concerning palliative care were reported. The need for further training and qualification of anaesthesiologists as well as the creation of necessary political structures were pointed out. Conclusion Future initiatives should include specific recommendations on the role of anaesthesiologists concerning palliative care in everyday clinical practice and interdisciplinary collaboration. Further training and qualification concepts should be examined.
