Abstract
This paper shows how difficult it is for clinicians to identify terminal illness at an early stage, and an unfavourable attitude towards reporting it in medical records. This attitude could be confirmed by the frequent use of ambiguous expressions regarding terminally ill, the lack of criteria and arguments to identify this situation.
