Abstract

Objectives: To describe end of life care in settings where, in the UK, most children die; to explore commonalities and differences within and between settings; and to test whether there are distinct, alternative models of end of life care. Methods: An online survey of UK neonatal units (NNUs), paedi...

Methods: An online survey of UK neonatal units (NNUs), paediatric intensive care units (PICUs) and children/young people's cancer principal treatment centres (PTCs) collected data on aspects of service organisation, delivery and practice relevant to end of life outcomes or experiences (referred to as the core elements of end of life care) across three domains: care of the child, care of the parent and bereavement care. Results: 91 units/centres returned a survey (37% response rate). There was variation within and between settings in terms of whether and how core elements of end of life care were provided. PTCs were more likely than NNUs and PICUs to have palliative care expertise strongly embedded in the multidisciplinary team (MDT), and to have the widest range of clinical and non-clinical professions represented in the MDT. However, bereavement care was more limited. Many settings were limited in the practical and psychosocial-spiritual care and support available to parents.
