[Dying patients and medical problems from the family doctors point of view (author's transl)].
Problems appearing to the confrontation with dying patients concern the family doctor as well as the clinician. To our computation 55,3% all man did not die in the hospital. Near 38% all at home dying man have had a more or less long sick bed and did care by the family doctor. In opposite to the hospital the general practitioner may cooperate only with medical laymans. The community nurse can many help but she has a lot of other tasks. According to our view, the enlightenment hopelessly ill patients is a very difficult problem solving of which we can on consideration of all conditions only. We should keep the straight talk not too early, otherwise we take the patients hope and paralyse all kinds of activities. There are some cases with complications in which we don't avoid hospitalisation in spite of very good home cars. All our troubles we may terminate not till after definite death.
