First seen Nov 21, 2025 · Last updated Jun 21, 2026 · Updated 31 times
Summary
This study observes how intensive care doctors discuss do-not-resuscitate (DNAR) orders with families of critically ill Muslim patients. Researchers will survey doctors after each conversation to understand what helps or hinders these difficult talks. No patients or families are contacted directly. The goal is to improve communication and end-of-life care in Muslim-majority hospitals.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better training for doctors and more culturally sensitive end-of-life care in Muslim communities.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only gathers opinions and data, so it won't directly change patient outcomes.
As listed by the trial registrant
The condition terms exactly as the trial's registrant entered them.
