Perinatal palliative care (PNPC) is a holistic multidisciplinary model of care for both baby and family in the event of a perinatal diagnosis of a life-limiting condition. It aims to provide optimal symptom control and end-of-life care to the baby as well as specialized support to families from diagnosis through to birth, death, and bereavement. This chapter aims to address the challenging clinical, ethical, and practical issues specific to perinatal palliative care. It describes antenatal life-limiting diagnoses, the role of anticipatory bereavement care, a palliative care approach to pregnancy, and outlines the complex planning and models of care required to optimally provide for the baby, mother, and family throughout. This chapter ultimately aims to provide management strategies to guide multidisciplinary teams (MDT) to deliver high-quality PNPC to the family as a whole.

Patients with chronic kidney disease typically have needs that cut across a range of services, including nephrology, other specialties, primary care, and palliative care. This chapter proposes a model of integrated supportive care from diagnosis to end of life that coordinates the efforts and maximizes the benefits of different healthcare teams. Supportive care teams can learn primary kidney supportive care skills to manage symptoms, provide emotional support, and facilitate conversations that focus on what matters most to patients and families. Applying best practices of care coordination, they can facilitate seamless transitions as the patient’s condition evolves.
