Social determinants, multimorbidity, and patterns of end-of-life care in older adults dying from cancer.
In this study, the researchers examined the association between end-of-life care and each of the social determinants of health and multimorbidity (MM), hypothesizing that higher MM is associated with less aggressive care. They found that, while 61.2 percent of the patients enrolled in hospice, 24.6 percent underwent cancer-directed treatment; 55.1 percent were admitted to the hospital and/or ED; and 21.7 percent died in the hospital.
