Palliative Care in Cardiology

Palliative care in cardiology focuses on improving the quality of life for patients with serious heart conditions. It involves a team of healthcare professionals who address not only the medical aspects of heart disease but also the emotional, social, and spiritual needs of patients. This approach helps manage pain, symptoms, and stress related to heart disease, allowing patients to live more comfortably. Palliative care can be provided alongside curative treatments and is suitable for patients of any age or stage of illness. The goal is to support patients and their families through difficult decisions and enhance overall well-being.
