The book also addresses the changing epidemiology of deathin this setting related to managed care, practical skills needed to provide the highest quality of care to terminal patients, communicating with patients and families, the mechanics of withdrawing life-supporting therapies, and the essential role of palliative care specialists in the ICU. The bookbriefly describes unique issues that arise when caring for patients with some of the more common diseases that precipitate death in the ICU.
