Ideal vs Actual Timing of Palliative Care Integration for Children With Cancer in Latin America

Abstract

This study highlights the discrepancy between ideal and actual timing of PPC for children with cancer and barriers to early PPC integration in Latin America. Interventions addressing access to PPC resources, didactic training, and clinical education (with a particular focus on equitable access to basic resources and support) are critical to improve the timing and quality of PPC in the region.
