书籍简介
《临终练习题》是每一个人终须面对的人生课题，
《临终练习题》需要你自己和亲人、医师，一起寻求更好的解答。
在目前的医疗环境之下，基本设定就是不择手段用种种医疗技术救活病人，
电击、心脏按压、插管样样来，
不管病人有多痛苦，救活之后必须面对怎样的人生。
洁西卡·齐特医师在《临终练习题》记录自己蜕变的经过──
从救人活命的英雄，变成尊重病人价值观与偏好的医师。
在现今的医疗文化，老人、病人都被抬上她所说的「临终输送带」，
插上各式各样的管子，在孤单、意识不清和无尽的痛苦中，离开人世。
洁西卡·齐特医师从经验得知，病人最害怕的其实不是死亡，
而是不得好死──在死前受尽种种折磨。
她希望在病人和医护人员之间建立桥梁，减轻病人的痛苦和焦虑，
以及寻求家属的支持，让病人得以善终，以安详优雅的姿态离开人世。
For readers of Being Mortal and Modern Death, an ICU and Palliative Care specialist offers a framework for a better way to exit life that will change our medical culture at the deepest level
In medical school, no one teaches you how to let a patient die.
Jessica Zitter became a doctor because she wanted to be a hero. She elected to specialize in critical care—to become an ICU physician—and imagined herself swooping in to rescue patients from the brink of death. But then during her first code she found herself cracking the ribs of a patient so old and frail it was unimaginable he would ever come back to life. She began to question her choice.
Extreme Measures charts Zitter’s journey from wanting to be one kind of hero to becoming another—a doctor who prioritizes the patient’s values and preferences in an environment where the default choice is the extreme use of technology. In our current medical culture, the old and the ill are put on what she terms the End-of-Life Conveyor belt. They are intubated, catheterized, and even shelved away in care facilities to suffer their final days alone, confused, and often in pain. In her work Zitter has learned what patients fear more than death itself: the prospect of dying badly. She builds bridges between patients and caregivers, formulates plans to allay patients’ pain and anxiety, and enlists the support of loved ones so that life can end well, even beautifully.
Filled with rich patient stories that make a compelling medical narrative, Extreme Measures enlarges the national conversation as it thoughtfully and compassionately examines an experience that defines being human.
