First seen Mar 15, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study tested a program called ED GOAL that helps older adults with serious illnesses like heart failure or cancer talk about their care wishes while in the emergency department. Researchers worked with 141 patients to see if the program increased how often they discussed their values and preferences with doctors. The goal was to improve advance care planning, not to treat the disease itself.
