Abstract
The predominance of ACNCP in end of life situations is characterised by advanced age, high comorbidity, significant overall impairment on admission, increased symptomatic burden, and a high prevalence of complications during the stay, and high mortality. There is a lack of approach to PI and AD in the original care resources. Our EMA methodology in IT allows us identify ACNCP with indication for palliative care soon after admission and while assessing their needs and those of their families with the aim of ensuring an appropriate end-of-life -care during the most for most of their stay.
