Summary, etc. | <span style="font-size: 10pt;">Palliative Care physicians are frequently involved in the care of patients with significant comorbidity and often have to take coexisting conditions into account when treating patients. An example of an area in which this is particularly relevant and will undoubtedly increase is presented with the case report of a patient with terminal metastatic lung carcinoma and an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) in place. The role of the ICD in preventing the patient from dying comfortably is discussed, as are means of deactivating the device. We conclude that patients with ICDs and terminal disease should have the issue of deactivation addressed at the earliest possible opportunity as practical difficulties may arise in the emergency setting, especially in the nonhospital environment.</span> |
