Description
There are well documented problems with clinician-family communication and support in ICUs, which may contribute to poor outcomes for patients and families. One general strategy to improve care is to improve the skills of the inter-professional ICU team to deliver primary palliative care. This presentation summarizes several efforts including a novel intervention recently tested in a large randomized clinical trial.
