Trends in location of death for individuals with cerebrovascular disease in the United States
JAMA Neurology Aug 27, 2019
Cross SH, et al. - Researchers examined the prevalence of locations of death and the factors determining the location of death and hospice use in patients who died from stroke. They assessed all patients who died from cerebrovascular disease in the United States from 2003 to 2017 for the location of death via querying a national database. According to findings, survival in patients with cerebrovascular disease has improved in correlation with advances in treatments. A critical patient-centric aspect of the end-of-life experience of these patients is the location of death, with most patients preferring to die at home.
