Abstract:
In 2011, we reported the usefulness of a database（DB）that was established by the members of a palliative care team（PCT）. Since then, we updated DB depending on the requests of PCT. We revised DB mentioned below. We developed a form for keeping a record of PCT members’care for patients, their family members or others, and a record of recommendation for each problem list. We also updated another form so that the evaluation of Support Team Assessment Schedule of Japan（STAS-J）had been showed sequentially, added an entry form of Palliative Prognostic Index, and extracted data required by Japan Society for Palliative Medicine in order to evaluate the activity of PCT. The database could be used by many hospitals, because it was created by the commercially available software.
