Partial Codes Risk Whole Confusion
Objective -Partial do-not-resuscitate (DNR) orders, directives specifying limited resuscitative efforts, are intended to align medical interventions with patient preferences. However, their complexity may introduce ambiguity, inconsistent care, and ethical challenges. Design -A retrospective review was conducted of inpatient partial code order entries over a three-year period at a single institution with a pediatric oncology and immunology cohort…
Describing Deaths over a Decade
Most deaths in a pediatric cancer center occur in children with active disease. Continuation of cure-directed chemotherapy, age, diagnosis, and location of death has potential to influence end-of-life inpatient care
Understanding the Why
Understanding the individualized factors shaping communication preferences can guide clinicians in tailoring prognostic discussions. Open-ended inquiry into identity, personal values, and past experiences can foster respectful, personalized communication in pediatric oncology. Further research is needed to determine best practices for prompting discussion about prognostic communication preferences that incorporates the reasons underpinning these …

Advice to Clinicians on Communication from Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer and Parents of Children with Cancer
Effective communication is integral to patient and family-centered care in pediatric and adolescent and young adult (AYA) oncology and improving healthcare delivery and outcomes. There is limited knowledge about whether AYAs and parents have similar communication preferences and needs. By eliciting and comparing communication advice from AYAs and parents, we can identify salient guidance for how clinicians can better communicate. We performed sec…
Leveraging Grief
As pediatric palliative care (PPC) became a recognized medical specialty, our developing clinical PPC team longitudinally partnered with bereaved parents to understand the care that their children received as they transitioned towards end of life. Families developed Eight Priorities, shared within, to improve care for children with a poor chance of survival based on their experience of losing a child to cancer. In this paper, we delineate the top…
