Our research team and clinical academics use and evaluate SPICT-DE in different care settings in Germany, including general practice.

SPICT Uses

We have worked closely with the SPICT International Programme for several years and Dr Kambiz Afshar has led the translation and adaptation of SPICT-DE and SPICT-4ALL-DE.

Our research focuses on testing SPICT in daily clinical practice for acceptability among GPs and their teams, and to evaluate the effects of early intervention (e.g. on medication, hospitalization, advance directives, referral to specialist palliative care).
