This text reviews the management of the main internal medicine issues as palliative care and hospice teams progressively become primary care providers. Through a prognosis-based framework, the book provides a practical approach to maximizing comfort and quality of life while minimizing aggressive investigations and therapies for patients with life-limiting disease.
