摘要

Like advance care planning (ACP), the clinical perspectives conference (CPC) is an ethically reflective tool for avoiding overtreatment. By realistically weighing the benefits and harms of a planned intervention, all practitioners involved should work together to define a realistic treatment goal and derive a multiprofessional and joint indication. Particularly in cases where ACP has not yet been sufficiently implemented in the preclinical setting, or where advanced disease only becomes evident in hospital, a CPC established as a preventive tool across all medical facilities would be a very useful instrument for identifying high-risk patients at an early stage and making decisions in a more structured manner, thus avoiding overtreatment and ensuring a responsible allocation of resources.
