Palliative care 🤍

We will know who should enter Palliative Care, not just the words "near death."

But based on "disease trends + quality of life," 🤍

🔎 signs that should start thinking about Palliative.

1️⃣ Severe, incurable disease.

Such as metastatic cancer, late-stage heart failure, end-stage chronic kidney failure.

2️⃣ Very torturous.

Very pain, tired, panting, nausea, anorexia, seepage.

3️⃣. Often hospitalized.

The admitts repeatedly worsened.

4️⃣ can't do the routine yourself.

Sleeping in bed. Very weak. Less self-help.

5️⃣ important questions we often use

👉 "If this patient dies within a year, will we be surprised?"

If the answer is "no surprise,"

That's a sign that you should start planning palliative care.

⚠️ Palliative doesn't mean there are a few days left.

Some people can take care of this for years.

The sooner it starts,

The sooner the suffering is reduced, 🤍

In the nurse's corner.

The goal is not just to prolong life.

But is to make the rest of life... the most quality. 🕊️

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัวในการดูแลผู้ป่วยโรครุนแรง ระบบ Palliative Care เป็นสิ่งที่ช่วยให้ผู้ป่วยและครอบครัวรู้สึกอุ่นใจมากขึ้น เพราะไม่ได้เน้นแค่เรื่องการยืดอายุ แต่ให้ความสำคัญกับการบรรเทาอาการทรมานต่าง ๆ ที่ผู้ป่วยต้องเผชิญ เช่น ความเจ็บปวด เหนื่อยหอบ หรือคลื่นไส้ การเริ่มดูแลตั้งแต่เนิ่น ๆ ตามสัญญาณที่กล่าวถึงในบทความ เช่น อาการทรุดลงบ่อยครั้ง หรือต้องเข้าโรงพยาบาลซ้ำหลายครั้ง ช่วยให้การวางแผนและการรักษามีประสิทธิภาพมากขึ้น และไม่ทำให้ผู้ป่วยหรือครอบครัวรู้สึกว่าถูกทอดทิ้ง อีกทั้งการมีทีมดูแล Palliative ที่มีพยาบาลและแพทย์ผู้เชี่ยวชาญเฉพาะ เป็นความช่วยเหลือที่สำคัญอย่างมาก การได้รับการประคับประคองอย่างเหมาะสม ช่วยลดความวิตกกังวลและความทุกข์ทรมาน ทั้งทางร่างกายและจิตใจของผู้ป่วย นอกจากนี้ยังทำให้ผู้ป่วยสามารถมีชีวิตที่เหลืออยู่ด้วยคุณภาพ มีความสุขและสงบ โดยไม่ต้องเจ็บปวดโดยไม่จำเป็น สำหรับผู้ที่กำลังดูแลผู้ป่วยหรือมีคนในครอบครัวที่กำลังป่วยหนัก การทำความเข้าใจคำถามสำคัญว่า “ถ้าผู้ป่วยคนนี้เสียชีวิตภายใน 1 ปี เราจะรู้สึกแปลกใจไหม?” เป็นเกณฑ์ง่าย ๆ ที่ช่วยบ่งชี้ว่าควรเริ่มวางแผน Palliative Care ได้เลย การเตรียมความพร้อมนี้ไม่เพียงแต่ช่วยผู้ป่วยเอง แต่ยังช่วยให้ครอบครัวรับมือกับสถานการณ์ได้ดีขึ้น โดยสามารถจัดการทั้งเรื่องการรักษาและความรู้สึกทางใจได้อย่างเหมาะสม สุดท้าย พลังของการดูแลแบบประคับประคองไม่ได้จำกัดแค่ผู้ป่วยที่อยู่ในช่วงท้ายของชีวิตเท่านั้น แต่เป็นการดูแลที่สามารถช่วยให้ชีวิตที่เหลืออยู่มีความหมาย และมีคุณภาพมากที่สุด เท่าที่จะเป็นไปได้ นี่คือสิ่งที่ทีมแพทย์และพยาบาลมุ่งหวังให้เกิดขึ้นจริงในทุก ๆ กรณี

Lessons I've learned observing end-of-life care
💝 When patient families are deciding on what to do for end-of-life care, ask their physician the question, "Well what would you do?" it's such a hard question to answer. Every family is different in terms of what they value and the memories they made with the patient, that you can't
