 note = {Palliative sedation is defined as a medical procedure to decrease the level of consciousness to relieve refractory and unendurable symptoms of patients who, given their disease state, progression, and symptom constellation, are expected to die within hours or days. Examining Guidelines for Palliative Sedation (2010 edition) , a reference in Japanese palliative care wards, this article firstly examines how authorities believe palliative sedation should be put into practice. Secondly, based on the fieldwork in a palliative ward in Tokyo, I explore how palliative sedation has been carried out there. Then thirdly I clarify that a dying process not only belongs to a person who dies but also to her/his family members and also medical staff in the ward. Finally I point out two significant features to be considered; 1. Palliative sedation is clearly related to euthanasia. 2. Palliative sedation must not be carried out to reduce medical staff’s workload., 5, 論文},
