Internal Medicine Issues in Palliative Cancer Care

A comprehensive manual for managing internal medicine complications within a palliative cancer care framework. It bridges the gap between acute medical treatment and end-of-life care by addressing how comorbidities like heart failure, infections, and metabolic imbalances should be handled when a patient’s life expectancy is limited. The text emphasizes a prognosis-based decision-making model, which prioritizes patient comfort and quality of life over aggressive or invasive diagnostics. Designed for a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, the book covers nearly fifty clinical topics across various subspecialties, from pulmonology to neuropsychiatry. It also offers practical guidance on prognostication and communication, helping clinicians navigate the complex transition from active cancer treatment to hospice care. Ultimately, the resource provides evidence-based strategies to tailor medical interventions to the specific biological and psychosocial needs of terminally ill patients.
