cuidados paliativos; paliativos: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la expresión "cuidados paliativos" se refiere a aquellos destinados a aliviar el dolor de un enfermo, pero no exclusivamente de alguien en fase terminal. [...] Aunque es habitual emplear "cuidados paliativos", o simplemente "paliativos", para referirse en concreto a los destinados a enfermos terminales —ya que suelen tener dolor—, por precisión es preferible optar en ese caso por construcciones como (cuidados) paliativos terminales, o bien cuidados para pacientes terminales o en fase terminal. 2, record 1, Spanish, - cuidados%20paliativos
