  • End-stage liver disease (ESLD) is a terminal condition of cirrhosis which cannot be treated without liver transplantation. Thus, it is natural for patients to consider hospice/palliative care (HPC). Since the recent legislation of the Act on Decisions on Life-Sustaining Treatment for Patients in Hospice and Palliative Care or at the End of Life (Act No. 14013) in Korea, the practicality of this law has become an issue. The criteria for HPC should be defined with consideration to how the severity of each ESLD complication may vary by individual patients. Generally, patients qualify if they have an intractable condition despite aggressive treatment such as the hepatorenal syndrome, hepatic encephalopathy or variceal hemorrhage. However, the option of liver transplantation should be sufficiently discussed with patients and their families before making a decision on HPC. The evaluation of which ESLD patients should receive HPC should be based on a long-term doctor-patient relationship and sufficient objective data. Therefore, a multidisciplinary approach and mutual consultation among cirrhosis specialists and doctors with other expertise are essential to offer optimal and balanced treatments between liver-specific treatment and HPC. Discussed in this review are adequate criteria for HPC and special considerations for ESLD at the point of HPC.

  • 신체적 질병의 심리적이고 신체적인 측면을 위한 미술치료의 사용은 여러 가지 이유로 확대되었다. 그 이유로는 대체의학에 대한 관심과 이미지를 제작하는 창조적인 과정이 심각한 질병과 싸우는 사람들에게 효과적인 치료라는 인식의 확산을 들 수 있다. 미술치료는 사람들이 고통과 몸을 쇠약하게 하는 그 밖의 증상들과 대결하도록 도와 감정과 신체적 증상들의 정체를 밝히고 그들이 의학적 치료에 능동적으로 참여하게 한다(1998, Cathy A. Malchiodi), 완화의학이 삶이 제한된 질환을 가진 환자 삶의 질을 최대한 높이는데 목적을 두고 연구하며 치료하는 의학의 한 전문분야로서 질환의 초점을 완치에 두는 것이 아니라 통증과 증상 조절 등 완화에 두고 의학적 문제뿐만 아니라 정신사회적, 영적인 문제까지 해결하는데 관심을 둔다면 예술치료의 한 분야인 미술치료는 그 대안이 될 수 있다.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the current status and the perception of hospice and palliative care program coordinators regarding the use of music in bereavement care in Korea. Both on-line and off-line questionnaires were distributed to program coordinators in 91 institutions, and 54 responses were analyzed by descriptive statistics and Mann-Whitney U test. Even though 92.6% of the participants currently provide a form of bereavement care and 51.9% utilize music as a part of their bereavement program, only 20.3% indicated that their bereavement programs were adequate to address the issues involved, suggesting a need for improvement. As the perceived necessity of bereavement care(4.52) and music therapy based bereavement care(4.20) were generally high, this study supports the need for further development of both forms of bereavement care in Korea.
