End-stage congestive heart failure is a leading diagnosis among hospice patients without cancer. As in terminally ill cancer patients; the aim of the treatment was to focus on palliation and maximum symptom relief. Anasarca, a widespread swelling of the skin because of effusion of fluid into the extracellular space, is a common sign in end-stage heart failure causing much pain and discomfort. We described a simple, safe, bed-side technique to alleviate the discomfort associated with massive scrotal oedema.
终末期充血性心力衰竭是癌症以外临终关怀患者的主要诊断疾病。与晚期癌症患者一样，治疗的目的是专注于缓解症状和最大程度减轻痛苦。全身性水肿是由于液体渗入细胞外间隙而导致皮肤广泛肿胀，是终末期心力衰竭的常见体征，会引起极大的疼痛和不适。我们描述了一种简单、安全的床边技术，以减轻与重度阴囊水肿相关的不适。
