Felicia Marie Knaul, Director of the University of Miami Institute for Advanced Study of the Americas, shared a paper she and her colleagues authored on LinkedIn:
“In 2018, The Lancet Commission on Global Access to Palliative Care and Pain Relief highlighted the enormous gap in access to opioids between lower- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and high-income countries (HICs) and introduced the concept of serious health-related health suffering (SHS).
We now have an extended analysis of SHS from 1990 to 2021 and the corresponding global palliative care need.
My colleagues and I have updated our methodology for measuring SHS and are excited to share SHS 2.0 with the world in The Lancet Group Global Health.
Read our latest paper here.”
