Knowledge of patients with cancer about palliative care: a bibliometric study

Authors

Abstract

This research seeks to characterize the bibliometric indicators regarding cancer patients’s knowledge
about palliative care. Bibliographic search associating the descriptors “patient,” “palliative care,” “knowledge” and “neoplasm” found low publication ratio and limited conexion among authors. Asian countries account for most publications, but the level of knowledge on the topic was limited given its strong association with end-of-life care aimed at hospitalized cancer patients without possibility
of cure. Mapping the main bibliometric indicators on knowledge about palliative care pointed out the need for further publications on the topic to provide better understanding.

Keywords:

Cuidados paliativos, Conhecimento, Idoso, Câncer
