Seminar A1 “ Let me die…..”
• What is the patient trying to tell us?
1. Express physical distress
2. Express psychological distress
3. Really wants to die
![Page 10: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• How would you respond?
![Page 11: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Examples of unhelpful responses
1. “You must be strong….”
2. “You will be OK!.......”
3. “You will get better…….”
4. “You must be positive, don’t say such words….”
5. “Euthanesia is not legal…..”
6. “I don’t have such a medication…..”
![Page 12: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Important issue:
1. Recognise that this is a golden opportunity to explore
2. To show empathy and invite the patient to talk
• Practical 3 step approach
1. Assess physical distress & treat accordingly
2. Assess psychological distress & treat accordingly
3. Assess existential issue & assess for suicidal ideation
![Page 13: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Example 1
• Lady with ca breast • Increasing L sided weakness secondary to brain met• Was able to walk to toilet but not now• pain from hepatomegaly / poor appetite / impacted stool• Husband & maid supportive but difficult• Pt voiced out “let me die”
![Page 14: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Imp: extensive physical distress main concern / carers distress
• Mx:
• Commode chair• Dexamethasone • Clear bowel• Adjust analgesic• Kept at home • Additional help from house nurse
![Page 15: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Example 2
• Man with ca stomach with peritoneal mets / RT tube feeding
• Divorced & remarried 6 month before diagnosis • Tried all possible treatment• Pt felt sorry for his new wife • Wanted to live longer to accompany his wife• Many physical symptom • Voiced out “ Let me die….”
![Page 16: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Imp: • Meaning of “Let me die “ is mainly psychological distress• Tired of the journey and want to die, but yet wants to live
longer for the sake of his wife
• Rx:• Aggressive mangement of pain & symptom• Support wife • Support pt staying home with wife as much as possible
![Page 17: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Example 3
• COAD & Ca lung patient / chemo stopped• Progressively getting weaker, walking needs assistance• Activities limited by dyspnoea • Frustrated with all the medication given • “Nurses force me to take medication” • refused all medication & voiced out “Let me die”
![Page 18: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Imp:• More existential issue• Patient is ready to go, but why need so much medication
• Mx:• Review medication• Stop meds except those absolutely necessary• Stop medication may not hasten death but too much me
dication will certainly hasten patient’s suffering
![Page 19: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Palliative chemotherapy: benefit or burden?
• What is palliative chemotherapy?
• Chemotherapy given aiming for symptomatic improvement to enhance comforte of patient & to improve QoL
• Not aiming for prolonging survival
![Page 20: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What are patient’s attitude towards chemo
• Chance to cure• Chance to prolong survival• Only to relief symptom• Patient may wants to have intensive treatment for small
benefit• (may not be understood by someone who is well)
![Page 21: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• General public: expect minimal but large benefit• Health care provider: in between the two above
![Page 22: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Physicians view point:• Doctors appears willing to treatment with small benefits• Due likely to:• Uncertainty in prognostication• Not to decrease patient’s hope
• 18% & 8% of patient received chemotherapy 4 & 2 weeks before death respectively
• Mostly decided by physicians
![Page 23: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Benefits:• Symptom control / QoL• Tumour regression ( upto 20% of pt treated)• Longer survival (eg target therapy provide 20-25 month o
f survival)
![Page 24: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Burden• Costs (upto US $90,000 in 6 month)• Care giver burden ( psychological, economical, occupati
onal burden )• Drug Toxicity (20-40% mild / upto 10% severe / death 1-
3%)
![Page 25: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
When to prescribe palliative chemo?
• Create a balance score of benefit vs harm• Note these factor may not be equal in importance• Override by patient’s desire• Given when there is meaningful potential benefit without
unbearable toxicity and taken patients wish into account
![Page 26: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• NOT to give pallative chemo as a substitute for antidepressant
![Page 27: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Example 1
• 50/F with colorectal cancer• Responded to chemotherapy with minimal side effect • Survived for 3 years
• Palliative chemo has added enjoyable & meaningful years to her life
![Page 28: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Example 2
• 50/F ca colon with liver mets• Receiving 2nd line chemo & anti EGRF monoclonal antib
ody• Family is crushed by the financial burden• Although patient’s chemo is able to provide tumour regre
ssion & prolong survival• But the overwhelming economic & psychological burden i
s far exceeding the benefit
![Page 29: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Example 3
• 30 yo man with advanced cancer wants to spend more time with his son
• But progressive disease despite chemo x2• Patient still contemplated for further chemo for longer sur
vival to accompany his son
![Page 30: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Depression & anxiety in palliative careA “Normal” response to dying?
• Depression:• General population 6-10%• Oncology 45-58%• Palliative care 24%
• Death• Unknown, irreversibility, loneiness, separation, loss of life• Also: confined, pain, SOB, loss of consciousness
![Page 31: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
• Thanatophobia • =Fear of death• Greek mythology / Thanato =God of death• Is a well recognized entity in human psyche
• Phobia becomes abnormal when:• The fear go beyond the normal intensity, duration, perver
siveness & quality• Interfere with patient’s functioning in life
![Page 32: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
A spectum of possibility• Normal reaction• Grieve reaction• Illness related symptom• Adjustment disorder• Due to medication • Psychiatric disorder• Organic brain syndrome
![Page 33: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Important to recognise:
• Major depression is best predictor of MI, angioplasty, death 12 months after cardiac catheterization
• In GAD, there is increased risk of VT• Depression increases mortality after stroke
![Page 34: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Important to treat/control anxiety as it will help to:• • Enhance tolerance to other symptoms• Affect compliance• Influence staff & family reaction
• Note:• Also related to procedures & tests• Often physical & somatic symptoms may overshadow
anxiety symptom
![Page 35: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Management of anxiety
• Reasuring stance help – knowledge & skill• Education helps• Psychological methods• Pharmacological treatments
• Note:• Assumption that high anxiety is inevitable is not helpful• Use somatic symptoms as cues to inquire about the pati
ent’s psychological states which commonly is fear, worry or apprehension
• Take patient’s subject level of distress
![Page 36: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
medications
• Benzodiazepam• Anti-psychotic• Antihistamine• Anti depressant• Opioid
![Page 37: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
• Note on benzodiazepam:• fear of respiratory depression should not prevent the use• Use short acting• Start with small dose• Increase the dose slowly• Switch to long acting ones if appropriate• Alternatively can use low dose antipsychotic
![Page 38: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• Other treatment:• Brief psychotherapy• Behavioural techniques
• Patient with high spirituality or intrinsic religiosity is less likely to have psychological disturbance
• Ability to derive the meaning of life & maintain peace internally
![Page 39: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
DemoralisationImpact on patients & caregivers
• The term demoralization emerged in 2000• Psychosomatics: 2000;41: 418-425• Recent definition:• Loss of meaning, purpose, with helplessness,
hopelessness• Inability to cope, social isolation• Suicidal ideation may develop from hopelessness &
meaninglessness• Absurd to reduce the patient’s entire psychopathology ,
psychosocial & biological contribution to illness in one diagnostic label
![Page 40: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Differentiation form depression
• Similar but different• Mood reactivity is usually preserved• (able to respond to happy news)• Treatment of physical symptoms, resolution of
psychological / spiritual or social issues restore hope & spirit rapidly
• Fail to show robust improvement with antidepressant medication
![Page 41: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
• Demoralisation scale
• J Palliative Care 2004; 20:269-276
![Page 42: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Clinical association of demoralization syndrome
• Illness related:• Breaking of diagnosis• At news of disease of progression• High burden of physical symptom• Body disfigurement, paraplegia
![Page 43: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
• Treatment related• Limb amputation, mastectomy• Chemotherapy• Threatens dignity eg becoming incontinent / dependent
• Patient factor:• Younger age more affected• Past Hx of mental illness• Axis II / maladaptive coping style• Poor relationships
![Page 44: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
• Countertransference & demoralization
• Demoralization is contagious• Demoralized patient can lead to demoralized care-giver• (and vice versa)• Demoralized patient can also lead to demoralized medic
al & allied health team members
![Page 45: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
• encountering demoralization:
• Treat physical symptoms• Address social, financial concern• Focus interviewing as a bridge to brief psychotherapy• Concept of presence• Facilitating repair of relationship• Acknowledge suffering “ this is a hard illness to have..”• Restoring value & dignity
![Page 46: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
• Difficult cancer pain
• 3 categories• Poorly responsive to morphine• Episodic breakthrough despite background analgesia• Dose limiting adverse effect
![Page 47: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Treatment for difficult cancer pain
• Disease modifying agent• Identify psychosocial, emotional, spiritual suffering• Change route of administration of opioid• Opioid rotation• Use of adjuvants• Invasive analgesic techniques
![Page 48: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
• Indication for opioid rotation
• Dose limiting adverse effects• Difficult pain syndrome• Poorly controlled pain
![Page 49: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

• Opioid rotation can be successful if….
• The basis for it is clear• It is part of the assessment & therapeutic strategy of the
patient• Equianalgesic ratios are used• Incomplete cross tolerance is account for• Continued assessment of the patient
![Page 52: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Management of cancer pain
• WHO analgesic ladder• This manage to relief upto 80-90% of all cancer pain• Levy Oncology 1999;13: 9-14
• Surgical interventions on appropriate nerves may provide pain relief if drugs are not wholly effective
• (Quoted from WHO)
![Page 53: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Benefits of interventional techniques
• More targeted & effective• The dose of drugs much smaller than if given iv or po• Intrathecal : intravenous =1: 100• Epidural or intrathecal analgesic usually produce fewer u
nwanted effects eg drowsiness
![Page 54: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
• Choice of technique
• Life expectancy• Mechanism & type of pain• Site of pain• Patients preference • Support available
![Page 55: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Peripheral nerve block
• Limited role• Case series on short term pain relief• Acute pain relief especially during the perioperative perio
d• Catheter infusions but limited time catheter can be left in-
situ
![Page 56: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)

Epidural or intrathecal?
• Trend towards intrathecal• Lower dosages• Less frequent pump refills• Less incidence of cath occlusion or fibrosis
![Page 58: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
opioids
• Large studies shows improved quality of life, functional capacity & pain scores
• Smith et al J Clinical Oncology 2002;20:4040-49• Asso with lower incidence of side effect as compared wit
h oral or parental routes• Most freq S/E:• Constipation • Urinary retention• Sweating• Nausea /vomiting• Respiratory depression 4-7%
![Page 59: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
morphine
• Hydrophilic nature• Spread to level distal to the site of injection• Only FDA approved opioid
• Other (not FDA approved)opioid:• Fentanyl• hydromorphone
![Page 60: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Local anaesthetic
• Improves pain relief & patient satisfaction• Deer et al. Spine 2002; 2(4): 274-8• Provide pain relief in patient who failed IT opioid therapy• Synergistic effect• Less opioid tolerance • Most common: bupivacaine
![Page 61: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Neurolytic technique
• Interruption of nociceptive transmission from peripheral tissue to spinal cord
• Persistent localised pain with limited life expectancy• Less uterised if alternative intervention available• Use as one-off intervention or limited resources or infrast
ructure available for catheter systems• Mainly alcohol or phenol
![Page 62: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Intrathecal neurolysis
• Administration of alcohol or phenol into subarachnoid space
• Aims to achieve pure sensory segmental block• Suitable for terminal ca with limited life expectancy with s
omatic pain• Associated with potential devastating complications
![Page 63: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Coeliac plexus block
• Main indication for ca pancreas• Also for upper GI cancer• Pain referred to back or upper abdomen• Strong evidence of efficacy upto 90%• Eisenberg et al. Anaesth Anal 1995;80:290-5
![Page 64: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Complications
• Diarrhoea 30% & postural hypotension 60%• Short lived 48hrs• Neurological injury or paralysis rare (1:700) but devastati
ng• Trauma /spasm / chemical irritation to Artery of Adamco
wtiz implicated
![Page 65: Palliative care monthly meeting](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/55690bded8b42ac1628b4ea2/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
