A ranking of symptoms on admission, during treatment and in the last 48 hrs was made according to our symptom assessment scale with the items: pain, gastrointestinal (nausea/emesis/intestinal obstruction), dyspnoea, anxiety/depression, fatigue/cachexia, cognitive disorder/delirium (drowsiness/agitation), bleeding, skin problems (ulcerations, oedema), neurological and others.
In our study we found that dyspnoea, delirium and anxiety increased during the treatment period in those patients who finally had sedation while pain was significantly reduced by adequate treatment during the progressing course of the disease (Figure 2).
6 predominant symptoms for sedation were differentiated: dyspnoea, pain, delirium/agitation, gastrointestinal, bleeding, anxiety/psychological distress.
