Аннотация
BACKGROUND: In low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), Do-Not-Resuscitate (DNR) discussions are often delayed or omitted, adversely affecting the quality of end-of-life care. Despite the growing recognition of palliative care, limited evidence exists on the timing and determinants of DNR decisions in these settings.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence, temporal trends and predictors of DNR orders among advanced cancer patients receiving palliative care at a tertiary center in Jordan.
METHOD: We conducted a retrospective review of all deceased advanced cancer patients who received palliative care at the King Hussein Cancer Center between 2013 and 2022. Demographic, clinical, and code status data at referral and at death were extracted from medical records. Descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and t-tests were used to identify patterns and associations.
RESULTS: Among 5,264 patients were analyzed, 48.9% female, 79.9% married, and 94.6% Jordanian. The most common cancer types were gastrointestinal (26.5%), breast (16.6%), and genitourinary (14.9%). At referral, 26.4% had a DNR order, increasing to 81% at death. Cancer type was significantly associated with DNR status at death (p < .001), with breast and gastrointestinal cancers more likely to have DNR orders. The proportion of DNR orders at death demonstrated an overall upward trend across the study period.
CONCLUSIONS: There was a substantial shift from CPR to DNR orders between referral and death primarily influenced by clinical rather than demographic factors. These findings underscore the importance of early advance care planning and targeted training in culturally sensitive end-of-life communication to promote patient-centered decision making.
