  Session Description:

  Hospice and palliative care clinicians are often well-versed in managing the common end-of-life symptoms of pain, nausea, and constipation.  But there are numerous other symptoms, such as cough, itching, hiccups, and dry mouth that can be troublesome to patients and somewhat challenging to treat. This presentation will discuss management of these troublesome symptoms to enable the hospice and palliative care clinician to understand the clinical data behind various treatment options and to feel as expert in managing these symptoms as they do the other more common end of life symptoms.
