| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to clarify preference of end-of-life care in cancer patients in outpatient clinic setting and explore longitudinal change. Three thousand and ten patients were recruited in the cohort. In the baseline survey, we clarified preference of end-of-life care in cancer patients. Some items were different from physician and nurse. In the longitudinal follow-up, most items did not change however preference of anti-cancer therapy decreased.
