[Advance care planning in nursing homes: scoping review].

Advance care planning is a deliberative process that aims to help patients define goals and preferences for future care and treatment at a times when they have limited decision-making capacity. This study aims to analyze models of advance care planning in elderly individuals living in nursing homes. We reviewed papers published in Cochrane, PubMed and Embase. A total of 26 studies were selected, including a total of 44,131 people over 65 years of age. We analyzed the types of intervention (interviews, videos, workshops, documentation, etc.) and their results derived from the application. We conclude that no study implements a standardized intervention model. These interventions include decision-making (transfers to hospital, resucitation orders) and the adequacy of therapeutic effort (antibiotherapy, nutrition, serotherapy, etc.). Other outcomes are implementation barriers (time and training).
