Winnipeg, Manitoba : University of Manitoba, Manitoba Centre for Health Policy, 2004, 112 p. http://www.umanitoba.ca/centres/mchp/reports/pdfs/end_of_life.pdf (12/03/2004) Format de fichier : Adobe Acrobat PDF Mots-clés principaux : ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Résumé : Ce rapport du Manitoba Centre for Health Policy évalue l'utilisation des soins de santé et les coûts qui y sont reliés pour les Manitobains âgés de 19 ans et plus qui sont décédés dans l'année fiscale 2000/2001. Le rapport tente de répondre à plusieurs questions telles : Où les Manitobains décèdent-ils? Quels facteurs sont liés à l'endroit où les Manitobains décèdent? Quels facteurs sont liés à l'utilisation des soins de santé à la fin de la vie? Qu'elle est l'estimation des coûts des soins de santé à la fin de la vie et qu'elle est l'évaluation des facteurs qui sont liés à ces coûts. Given the concern with end-of-life issues, the Manitoba Centre for Health Policy (MCHP) was asked by Manitoba Health to examine patterns of health care use and health care costs at the end of life. In addition, we examined where Manitobans die. Most people would prefer to die at home, if given the choice. Yet Canadian studies show that in some provinces close to 90% of people die in hospitals. Concern has been raised over the large proportion of hospital deaths because the care of terminally ill and dying individuals may be treatment oriented, rather than comfort oriented on the one hand, and because people may be dying in the "sterile setting of a hospital surrounded by strangers and medical equipment, rather than loved ones" (The Special Senate Committee on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide, 1995). Location of death therefore becomes an important issue to examine. Thus, the present report has the following objectives: 1. To determine where Manitobans die. 2. To examine what factors are related to where Manitobans die. 3. To examine how common transfers to hospital are at the end of life and whether they vary by location of residence. 4. To explore what factors are related to health care use at the end of life. 5. To estimate health care costs at the end of life and then examine the factors related to these costs.
