Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

OPCARE9 was a 3 year EU FP7 Co-ordination and Support Action grant funded collaborative project to optimise the care of cancer patients in the last days of life. The project was managed within an international collaborative framework, across Europe and beyond, intergrating knowledge from a range of healthcare environments and cultures. Its structure comprised of a multi-professional interdisciplinary team to ensure maximal integration across the project and optimal success.
The aim of OPCARE9 was to reach consensus positions, based on current practice and available research evidence, on the optimum care to be delivered in the last days of life to cancer patients and to identify gaps in the knowledge base within the five primary themes.
