Abstract:

The objective of this review was to detail the experiences of Muslim oncology patients receiving palliative and end-of-life care and identify where gaps in the providing of culturally aware care occur. We also sought to examine ways in which providers could be better educated on the needs of Muslim patients at the end-of-life and identify barriers Muslims faced when being treated with hospice and palliative care models developed for non-Muslim populations. We conducted a search in April 2018 in the National Library of Medicine and CINAHL databases using the search terms “palliative care,” “Muslim,” and “cancer.” Included were articles with focuses on adult Muslims with palliative and end-of-life care experiences. We then followed the PRISMA guidelines for an integrative review and used a data extraction matrix to identify 20 papers that met the inclusion criteria of the review. We identified four major themes patient experiences, patient care delivery suggestions, Muslim provider experiences, and definitions of death, present in all 20 papers of the review. Each of the included papers was categorized based on the dominant theme in the paper. This review ultimately found that the care provided to Muslim patients is subpar for the standard of culturally competent care and that the needs of Muslim patients at the end-of-life, as well as the needs of their families, are not being met. Moving forward further research on this topic is needed with a particular focus on examining the experiences of terminally ill Muslim patients receiving treatment in non-Muslim majority settings
