Abstract:
With the rapid development of hospice care, more and more people pay attention to the quality of life of patients at the end of life. Due to the dialysis-related complications, heavy burden of comorbidities and cognitive impairment, elderly hemodialysis patients have poor quality of life, which brings heavy physiological, psychological and economic burdens to patients, families and society. Advance care planning can improve patients′ quality of life and save limited medical resources. By referring to relevant literature at home and abroad, this paper reviewed the overview of advance care planning, the necessity of discussing advance care planning with elderly hemodialysis patients, the implementation status and the obstacle factors. The purpose was to provide theoretical reference for better implementation of intervention treatment in elderly hemodialysis patients in China in the future.
