Track: Pediatric Palliative care
Pediatric Palliative Care is a specialized, compassionate approach to care that focuses on improving the quality of life of children with serious, life-limiting, or chronic illnesses, as well as providing holistic support to their families. It addresses physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs from the time of diagnosis through treatment, follow-up, and, when necessary, end-of-life care.
Key Subtopics:
Pain and Symptom Management: Assessment and control of pain, dyspnea, fatigue, nausea, and other distressing symptoms in children.
Psychosocial and Emotional Support: Supporting the emotional well-being of children and families, including coping strategies and grief support.
Family-Centered Care: Involving families in decision-making and providing guidance, counseling, and caregiver support.
Ethical and Communication Aspects: Addressing ethical dilemmas, advance care planning, and age-appropriate communication with children and families.
Palliative Care in Chronic and Life-Limiting Conditions: Integrating palliative care in oncology, neurology, genetic disorders, and complex chronic illnesses.
End-of-Life Care: Providing comfort-focused care with dignity and compassion during the final stages of life.
This session highlights the importance of early integration of palliative care to enhance comfort, dignity, and overall well-being. We encourage healthcare professionals and researchers to submit abstracts on Pediatric Palliative Care and contribute to advancing compassionate care for children and their families.
