Die Etablierung palliativmedizinischer Versorgungsstrukturen im ambulanten Bereich hat in den vergangenen Jahren die ärztliche Betreuung von Palliativpatienten deutlich verändert. Eine an den spezifischen Bedürfnissen schwerstkranker Patienten orientierte Versorgung im häuslichen Umfeld erfordert es, bestehende gesetzliche Regelungen zu hinterfragen, anzupassen oder fortzuentwickeln. Kontrovers diskutiert wird, wie das Grundanliegen des Betäubungsmittelrechts -- Schutz der Bevölkerung vor Abhängigkeit und Missbrauch sowie Sicherstellung der notwendigen medizinischen Versorgung -- mit dem palliativmedizinischen Selbstverständnis der Gewährung einer bestmöglichen Behandlung von Schmerzpatienten in Einklang gebracht werden kann. In diesem Spannungsfeld fasst der Band die Beiträge eines Expertenworkshops zusammen, der 2012 von der Klinik für Palliativmedizin sowie dem Zentrum für Medizinrecht der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen veranstaltet wurde. Ergänzt um Beiträge weiterer Autoren werden aktuelle Konfliktbereiche im Verhältnis von (Betäubungsmittel- )Recht und Palliativmedizin aufgegriffen und im interdisziplinären Dialog beleuchtet.

Data from the World Health Organization indicate that about 40 million people worldwide require palliative care each year. We must face this enormous problem with appropriate welfare policies and training of up-to-date and competent personnel. In this context, a book that collects the experiences of authors with diverse backgrounds, and operating in different settings of palliative care, can be added to the many editorial products on the subject. Over five sections, this volume addresses such topics as palliative care in children, infants, and gynecologic oncology patients; the role of the caregiver; the use of drugs; and ethics, organization, and policy issues. Although this book should not be considered as an exhaustive treatise on palliative care, the many topics covered and the experience and competence of the authors involved make it a useful tool for those who are already experts in the field as well as those who are studying this field.
