ATS 2020 Advance Program

Patients who live with serious, non-malignant chronic respiratory diseases have significant unmet palliative care needs. Despite this, timely palliative care is rarely implemented in these populations and remains under appreciated and underutilized in pulmonary medicine. This jointly-developed session features multidisciplinary, multi-institutional perspectives from palliative-pulmonary researchers and clinicians to provide a state of the science on palliative care in chronic respiratory disease, including novel research, innovative delivery models, and health policy recommendations to break down barriers to early integration.
