End-of-life Care To be Vigorous for Ovarian Cancer Patients by Angela Mohan on  April 6, 2021 at 11:38 AM Ovarian cancer patients often receive aggressive end-of-life care despite recommendations that emphasize quality of life for those with advanced disease. In fact, by 2016, ICU stays and emergency department visits in the last month of life had become more common for people with ovarian cancer than they were in 2007, the earliest year from which researchers analyzed data. The proportion of non-Hispanic Black people who turned to the emergency department for care was even higher double that of non-Hispanic whites. Black people were also nearly twice as likely to undergo intensive treatment, including life-extending measures such as resuscitation or the insertion of a feeding tube.
