Description
This thesis has created new knowledge on how to identify people with a haematological cancer who are at high risk of deteriorating and dying. Using various research methods, six clinical indicators have been highlighted that identify people who may benefit from proactive palliative care planning. This research will help people with a haematological cancer have greater control over their death, and the time they have remaining.
