    Palliative cancer care: costs in a Brazilian quaternary hospital
    (2022) ROZMAN, Luciana Martins; CAMPOLINA, Alessandro Goncalves; LOPEZ, Rossana Mendoza; CHIBA, Toshio; SOAREZ, Patricia Coelho De
    Palliative care (PC) improves the quality of life of patients with diseases such as cancer, and several studies have shown a reduction in costs among patients who use PC services when compared with those receiving standard oncological treatments. Most studies on PC costs are carried out in high-income countries. There is a lack of these types of studies in middle-income and low-income countries and of better evidence about this intervention. Objective To describe resource utilisation and costs among patients with cancer in a Brazilian quaternary hospital by cancer localisation and per month of treatment before death. Methods This study is a description of retrospective costs to estimate the costs of formal healthcare sector associated with PCs, from the perspective of a public quaternary cancer hospital. Unit costs were estimated using microcosting and macrocosting approaches. Setting/Participants Patients older than 18 years old who died from 2010 to 2013 and who had at least two visits in PC and/or made use of hospice care. Results Among the 2985 patients included in the study, the average cost per patient was US$12 335, ranging from US$8269 for patients with pancreatic cancer to US$19 395 for patients with brain cancer. The main costing item was hospital admission (47.6% of the total cost), followed by hospice care (29.5%) and medical and other supplies (11.1%). Conclusions The study clarified the direct medical costs and the profile and use of resources of patients with cancer who need PC, and can help in the planning and allocation of resources in cancer care.

    Quality of life in a sample of Brazilian adults using the generic SF-12 questionnaire
    (2018) CAMPOLINA, Alessandro Goncalves; LOPEZ, Rossana Veronica Mendoza; NARDI, Elene Paltrinieri; FERRAZ, Marcos Bosi
    Objective: This study describes the summary scores of the Short Form-12 (SF-12) questionnaire, according to socio-demographic factors obtained in a probabilistic and representative sample of the Brazilian urban population. Method: Five thousand (5,000) individuals, over the age of 15, were assessed in 16 capital cities, in the five regions of the country. The selection of households was random. Face-to-face approach was applied in the household interviews. The SF-12 questionnaire was used to assess quality of life. Demographic and socioeconomic characteristics were also evaluated: gender, age, marital status, skin color, region of the country and use of the public health service. Results: The mean value (SD) of the SF-12 for the entire population was 49.3 (8.7) for the physical component (PCS-12) and 52.7 (9.7) for the mental component (MCS-12). Statistical differences were found for gender (PCS-12 and MCS-12), age (PCS-12) and working status (PCS-12 and MCS-12). Women, elderly, widowed and unemployed individuals, those with lower income and with complaints in the last seven days showed lower mean values (PCS-12 and MCS-12). Conclusion: From this point forward, we can provide the basis for comparisons with future research that use the SF-12 for quality of life assessment in Brazil. The Brazilian population has a lower degree of quality of life related do the physical component, and the SF-12 is a useful and discriminative instrument for assessing quality of life in different socio-demographic groups.

    Early Palliative Care and Its Impact on End-of-Life Care for Cancer Patients in Brazil
    (2018) ROZMAN, Luciana Martins; CAMPOLINA, Alessandro Goncalves; LOPEZ, Rossana Veronica Mendonca; KOBAYASHI, Silvia Takanohashi; CHIBA, Toshio; SOAREZ, Patricia Coelho de
    Background: Integrating palliative care into standard oncology care has been recommended for cancer patients. Early palliative care is associated with less aggressive treatment at the end of life. Objective: To describe cancer patients receiving palliative care in Brazil, determining the time from entry into palliative care to death, and investigating whether late referral to palliative care is associated with aggressive end-of-life treatment. Design: This was a cross-sectional study of cancer patients receiving palliative care in Brazil. Setting/Subjects: Subjects were 2985 cancer patients 18 years of age who received at least two palliative care visits at the SAo Paulo State Cancer Institute, in the city of SAo Paulo, Brazil, and died between 2010 and 2013. Measurements: We evaluated the time from the first palliative care consult to death, stratifying cases by the timing of entry into palliative care (3 or <3 months before death). The associations between early palliative care and indicators of aggressive treatment were assessed by Pearson's chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. Results: The overall median time between entry into palliative care and death was 34 days (mean, 72 days) and was significantly shorter in 2013 than in 2010 (p<0.001). The number of emergency department visits was significantly lower among the patients who entered palliative care earlier (p<0.001). Conclusions: Among cancer patients in Brazil, late referral to palliative care is common. Patients who enter palliative care earlier appear to receive less aggressive end-of-life treatment.
