Abstract (English): In the following deliveries of the magazine we are going to treat the subject of care to terminally ill. Just as important as the attention at birth, and the right to live, must be the attention to die and the right to die with dignity. Despite the fact that the importance of the death is evident in the course of the history, because we can see how has led the most diverse systems of beliefs and practices magical-religious, in an attempt of mankind to understand and manage this inevitable reality of human nature, the problem of the sick next to death has been ignored and its attention postponed; this has to do with the presence of the death, which in our modern society marks the "end" of the values in it are highlighted: the youth and beauty, consumerism, power, competitiveness. Fortunately, with the foundation in 1967, the St. Christopher's Hospice in London, by Cicely Saunders, marks the start of the modern Hospice movement, and with it, the specialized attention to the terminally ill. Even though there are very ancient references to institutions dedicated to the care of dying, were the drivers of the movement Hospice the first to show that the technological medicine not responded appropriately to the needs of the sick confronted with the last phase of life. The movement of palliative care has had the merit of recall that the patient is a person and the dying a seint being. A tool to know and understand the individual at this stage of his life or at this stage of the disease. It is important to define what are palliative care and what are the criteria of terminal illness, to establish the framework of action and the type of patient towards which is addressed this attention. The Palliative Medicine make emphasis on the physical care, but without leaving aside the spiritual care and to meet the needs psychological and social the terminally ill, so it will discuss these aspects to over the chapters that will be trying in successive numbers of the magazine. Also in the chapter on control of symptoms, they will mention on the complementary therapies that are demonstrating its usefulness in terminally ill. The purpose of this document is to provide some basic lines, overall performance in palliative care, integrating the conventional medicine and complementary. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): En las siguientes entregas de la revista vamos a tratar el tema de los cuidados al enfermo terminal. Tan importante como la atención al nacer, y el derecho a vivir, debe ser la atención al morir y el derecho a morir dignamente. A pesar de que la importancia de la muerte es evidente a lo largo de la historia, pues podemos ver cómo ha propiciado los más diversos sistemas de creencias y prácticas mágico-religiosas, en un intento de la humanidad de entender y manejar esta realidad inevitable de la naturaleza humana, el problema del enfermo próximo a fallecer ha sido ignorado y su atención pospuesta; esto tiene que ver con la presencía de la muerte, que en nuestra sociedad moderna marca el "fin" de los valores que en ella se resaltan: la juventud y la belleza, el consumismo, el poder, la competitividad. Afortunadamente, con la fundación en 1967, del St. Christopher's Hospice, en Londres, por Cicely Saunders, se marca el inicio del movimiento Hospice moderno, y con él, la atención especializada a los enfermos terminales. Aunque existen referencias muy antiguas de instituciones dedicadas al cuidado de los moribundos, fueron los impulsores del movimiento Hospice los primeros en poner de manifiesto que la medicina tecnológica no respondía adecuadamente a las necesidades de los enfermos enfrentados a la última fase de la vida. El movimiento de los cuidados paliativos ha tenido el mérito de recordar que el enfermo es una persona y el moribundo un ser vivo. Una herramienta para conocer y comprender a la persona en esta etapa de su vida o en esta fase de la enfermedad. Se hace importante definir qué son los cuidados paliativos y cuàles son los criterios de enfermedad terminal, para establecer el marco de actuación y el tipo de enfermo hacia el que va dirigida esta atención. La Medicina Paliativa hace énfasis en el cuidado físico, pero sin dejar de lado la atención espiritual y atender a las necesidades psicológicas y sociales de los enfermos terminales, por lo que se hablaró de estos aspectos a lo largo de los capítulos que se irán tratando en los números sucesivos de la revista. También en el capítulo sobre control de síntomas, sehará mención sobre las terapias complementarias que están demostrando su utilidad en enfermos terminales. La finalidad de este documento es ofrecer unas líneas básicas, generales de actuación en cuidados paliativos, integrando la medicina convencional y complementaria. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
