Sumario:With knowledge, skills, and attitudes to treatment goal establishment and treatment decisions, palliative care can contribute to appropriate use of scare resources during the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. Palliative medicine also delivers recommendations on management of symptoms of breathlessness, anxiety, and restlessness, and provides concepts for communication with patients and their relatives/caregivers in spite of pandemic-related restrictions. In the national Palliative Care in Times of Pandemics (PallPan, https://pallpan.de/) project, 16 university palliative care centers have contributed to development of 32 recommendations, with best-practice examples for patients, relatives/caregivers, health care professionals, and decision-makers in the health care system. PallPan also includes recommendations for bereavement care in times of pandemic.
