END-OF-LIFE (MEDICAL TREATMENT)

In bioethics, 'end-of-life' medical care covers a range of treatment options for patients who considered critically ill. At times, end-of-life care also may refer to patients who, though not terminally ill, are deemed incurable and lacking awareness (e.g., persistent vegetative state).
