    Snippet: When a lung cancer patient develops an organ failure, the intensity of the care should be decided taking into account patient’s wishes and his plan of carekeeping, in mind that the objective of an intensive care unit (ICU) admission is to allow the patient to be discharged from ICU and hospital with an acceptable quality of life.

    Document: When a lung cancer patient develops an organ failure, the intensity of the care should be decided taking into account patient’s wishes and his plan of carekeeping, in mind that the objective of an intensive care unit (ICU) admission is to allow the patient to be discharged from ICU and hospital with an acceptable quality of life. But the physician in charge of the patient at the time of acute disease often does not have these information. It is therefore essential that the referring oncologist had an early discussion with the patient to inform him and collect his opinion. These information have to be noted in the patient’s medical chart. The prognostic criteria of lung cancer patients admitted in ICU are related to the patient’s characteristics, the cancer’s characteristics and the severity of acute disease. In order that a decision of ICU admission is in accordance with the patient’s therapeutic project, a close discussion between the oncologist and the intensivist is essential, especially in this period of SARS-CoV2 pandemy. © 2021 SPLF.
