“…It is recognized that ethnoreligious specific education regarding EOLC is needed to address the attitude of nurses toward death and dying. In a separate qualitative study, Han and Eo (2020) described the phenomenon of the dying process as maintaining balance by becoming a ballast in the journey toward death. Another study revealed that approximately one in five Americans die in the ICU, but both planning for end-of-life (EOL) care and the actual interventions received are highly variable across demographic groups (Richter, 2017).…”

Purpose It is necessary to estimate the hospice usage and hospice-related cost for entire cancer patients using nationwide cohort data to establish a suitable ethical and cultural infrastructure. This study aims to show the effects of hospital hospice care on healthcare expenditure among South Korean cancer patients. Methods This study is a retrospective cohort study using customized health information data provided by the National Health Insurance Service. Individuals who were diagnosed with stomach, colorectal, or lung cancer between 2003 and 2012 were defined as new cancer patients, which included 7,176 subjects. Patients who died under hospital-based hospice care during the follow-up period from January 2016 to December 2018 comprised the treatment group. Healthcare expenditure was the dependent variable. Generalized estimating equations was used. Results Among the subjects, 2,219 (30.9%) had used hospice care at an average total cost of 948,771 (± 3,417,384) won. Individuals who had used hospice care had a lower odds ratio (EXP(β)) of healthcare expenditure than those who did not (Total cost: EXP(β) = 0.27, 95% confidence intervals (CI) = 0.25–0.30; Hospitalization cost: EXP(β) = 0.32, 95% CI = 0.29–0.35; Outpatient cost: EXP(β) = 0.02, 95% CI = 0.02–0.02). Conclusion Healthcare expenditure was reduced among those cancer patients in South Korea who used hospice care compared with among those who did not. This emphasizes the importance of using hospice care and encourages those hesitant to use hospice care. The results provide useful insights into both official policy and the existing practices of healthcare systems.

The objective of this study was to investigate the factors affecting the quality of dying and death among terminally ill patients in an intensive care unit in Korea using a cross-sectional, online survey. A total of 300 nurses in the intensive care unit who had cared for a terminally ill patient for at least 48 h prior to death in the past six months were chosen to participate. The person-centered critical care nursing (PCCN) score and quality of dying and death (QODD) had a positive correlation. The QODD score increased when the consultation was conducted between the terminally ill patients and their doctors when CPR was not performed within 48 h of death, and when the PCCN score increased. The quality of death of patients is affected by whether they have sufficiently consulted with healthcare providers regarding their death and how much respect they receive. It is important for nurses to practice and improve patient-centered nursing care in order to ensure a good quality of death for terminally ill patients.
