Palliative Sedation
Palliative sedation is a medical intervention used in palliative care to relieve intractable symptoms that cannot be managed by any other means, particularly in the final stages of life. This practice involves the intentional lowering of a patient's consciousness through carefully administered sedatives to alleviate suffering, such as severe pain, agitation, or shortness of breath, which are otherwise unresponsive to conventional treatments. The goal of palliative sedation is not to hasten death but to ensure that patients experience a peaceful and dignified end-of-life journey. It is often considered when other palliative measures have failed, and the focus remains on respecting the patient's comfort and wishes. Ethical considerations, clear communication with the patient and their family, and an interdisciplinary approach are essential components in the decision-making process for palliative sedation.
