Tóm tắt : | Background: There is a global agreement that palliative care should be universally accessible. However, in low- and middle-income countries and conflict zones, most people lack access to it. In the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR), no country has achieved integration of palliative care into its health care system, and only 4 countries have better-than-isolated palliative care provision. Aims: To promote and guide palliative care improvement in the EMR, with case studies showing the successes and challenges of palliative care implementation from 4 countries in the Region. Methods: We developed a structured, succinct, case-writing format and invited palliative care leaders in the EMR to use it to describe successes and challenges in palliative care implementation in their countries. Results: Within the EMR, in addition to many challenges and needs, there are examples of successful palliative care policy development, community-based service creation, and paediatric palliative care implementation. Conclusion: The experiences of the regional palliative care leaders documented in succinct, structured case studies, can help guide regional palliative care development in the EMR and other regions |
