Linked to work undertaken by Professors Nancy Preston and Shiela Payne for an EU project on the subject of Palliative Sedation, a Call for papers for a Collection has recently been launched by BMC Palliative Care.

This Collection seeks to gather research on palliative sedation, addressing its ethical, clinical, and interpersonal dimensions. BMC Palliative Care invites submissions that explore the complexities of palliative sedation, including ethical considerations, clinical guidelines, and the perspectives of patients, families, and healthcare professionals. In doing so, we aim to advance our understanding of palliative sedation and its role in providing compassionate end-of-life care.

Guest editors include IOELC's Sheila Payne.

Deadline for submissions is 20th March 2025 and you are invited to submit to the collection before this date.
