Psychiatric Aspects of the End of Life
2001
End-of-life psychiatry remains an inadequately developed branch of research and clinical practice in the field. This is despite the frequency not only of psychological problems, but also of mental disorders requiring treatment in the last stages of life. Terminally ill and dying patients rarely receive psychiatric treatment, and the majority of psychiatrists have less experience with the problems of treatment in this field than many palliative care physicians.
