Abstract
Abstract. Patients with advanced COPD have a high symptom burden that is often multidimensional. Identification of patients who might benefit from palliative care through validated identification tools, multidimensional symptom management, and timely discussion of advance planning are elements of a palliative care approach for these patients and their families. Coordination among stakeholders providing care and support to these patients is central to ensuring high-quality care and meeting all of their needs.
