title: [Models of communication to integrate early palliative care in thoracic oncology].
abstract: The recent development in optimising palliative care standards in thoracic oncology is associated with an increased demand in specialized communication skills. Standardised and integrated assessments of the palliative care need of the patient is met by limited health care resources. The model of communication described in this article emphasizes the need to structure palliative distress assessment of the patient. Communication pathways are shown as a platform to evaluate and support patient and caregivers. Standards to establish algorithms of communication in palliative care will improve the very important interaction between patient and caregivers.
