Summary

Introduction

Palliative care (PC) is a modality of care that is strategically perpetuated for the prevention, early detection, and treatment of diseases that affect both people with life-threatening chronic diseases and their families[1]. Its goals are to provide comfort, improve quality of life, reduce suffering and promote dignity for people who are in a condition or disease that brings them close to death[1,2]. This document reiterates the need for universal access to high-quality PC for all types of patients with advanced chronic conditions and limited life prognosis, as well as people with sequelae of disease or on long-term treatment, neonates, and children with congenital or acquired diseases[4]. In all parts of the world, countless people, especially those with low incomes, live and die with little or no PC or relief of pain and suffering, which characterizes inequity in the application of technological advances[5]
