How Timing Shapes Medicine's Hardest Conversations

Original: How timing shapes one of the hardest conversations in medicine

Researchers at the University of Colorado are examining how the timing of serious medical discussions, such as end-of-life care or difficult diagnoses, affects patients and families. The work suggests that when and how clinicians raise these conversations can shape outcomes, trust and decision-making, and it is prompting debate among healthcare professionals about best practices for delivering hard news.

Why now: Ongoing discussion about improving doctor-patient communication around end-of-life and serious illness care.
