Advance directives at the end of life in people with cancer in palliative care

In Colombia, advance directives are a right regulated by the health system. However, little is known about the implementation of advance directives in clinical practice and from the perspective of cancer patients. This is why this study seeks to know the experiences with the implementation of advance directives in a group of cancer patients in palliative care. The results of this stud will contribute to improving the quality of care at the end of life in people with cancer.
