Abstract

The AMA offers guidance on the significance of palliative surgical care in Opinion 5.6, "Sedation to Unconsciousness in End-of-Life Care," and Opinion 5.5, "Medically Ineffective Interventions." The American Medical Association's House of Delegates policies further outline ways in which physicians should navigate palliative care intervention through spreading awareness of and advancing research on palliative care and improving reimbursement practices. This article defines , examines the risks associated with palliative surgery, and discusses AMA guidance.
