Abstract

With coronavirus disease 2019, the risk of death has increased in the general population. In these unprecedented times and even otherwise, it is important for the health care professionals caring for Hindu patients to be aware of the end of life practices in Hinduism. There is limited information in the medical literature about traditions and practices followed in Hinduism which is observed by 15% of the world population. Hinduism is currently the third largest religion following Christianity and Islam. Based on Hindu beliefs about life, death, and reincarnation, we propose 10 end of life best practices for Hindu patients.

摘要

随着 2019 年冠状病毒病的出现，普通人群的死亡风险增加了。在这个前所未有的时代，即使在其他情况下，照顾印度教患者的医疗保健专业人员也应该了解印度教的临终实践。在医学文献中，关于印度教传统和实践的信息有限，而全世界有 15%的人口遵循印度教。印度教是目前仅次于基督教和伊斯兰教的第三大宗教。基于印度教徒对生命、死亡和轮回的信仰，我们为印度教患者提出了 10 项临终关怀最佳实践。
