Abstract:
As palliative care practice gradually undertakes important missions in both the medical field and the society,it has become an emerging disciplinary area that meets the needs of the times.At the same time,the discipline construction of palliative medicine has become a crucial issue that urgently needs to be addressed in the cause of palliative care in China.In this article,we trace the origin of the concept of palliative care and classify,sort out,and expound the research objects,research contents,research methods,etc.of palliative medicine by combining the methods of literature analysis and focus group interviews.According to the development context and evolution process of palliative care,we put forward the proposition of building a discipline of palliative medicine,with the aim of helping the academic community distinguish the connotation and denotation of the disciplinary definition and laying a foundation for the work of discipline construction.
