Question re: pacing treatment . . .

This chart / table shows something interesting regarding pacer . . . :

[url=*** - Google Drive[/url]

Note except for the first period, fewer surgical patients died in the studies than non-surgical patients . . . were the studies 'frontloaded' with hospice patients?

". . . Hospice is provided for a person with a terminal illness whose doctor believes he or she has six months or less to live . . . "

Exclamation

The specific clause:

"Participation in experimental treatments or clinical trials is not allowed because they are considered life-prolonging. In addition, other treatments or procedures considered life-prolonging nasogastric or "feeding" tube, might not be covered.5
Center for Hospice Care. Feeding, hydration, and hospice care."

Beef, there is no table or chart in the linked article. Is there a link WITHIN the article that would bring me to the table/chart?

The table's link is in the 10:11am post, rather than the article. It seems to be operational.

Arrow ALS 101 note

Good introductory research papers regarding Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis . . . relatively easy to read, many patients would likely understand and learn a lot from them.
