- Summary:
- This report is intended to show how physicians and other health care professionals can help their patients with advance care planning and assess patient preferences for care at the end of life. Section 1 discusses research findings from studies funded by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), as well as those from other research. For readers who want more detailed information, Section 2 contains charts and tables showing the quantitative results of the studies supported by AHRQ. This research can help providers offer end-of-life care based on preferences (both real and hypothetical) held by the majority of patients under similar circumstances.
