THE SCHOLARSHIP OF TEACHING AND DISCOVERY IN CRITICAL CARE TABLE 1-3 produce a cure. Third, understanding that comfort care is extensive and effective allows the ICU to become a safe place for grieving and dying. This is a distinctly different approach from that of many physicians who feel they have failed their dying patients by not providing cure; all too often this fear of failure leads to abandoning dying patients without providing effective comfort care. Since death is not an option but an inevitability for all of us, critical care physicians can bring their expertise and understanding to help patients decide when to forego life-sustaining therapy and to replace it with effective comfort care, making the ICU a safe and supporting space for the dying patient and his or her significant others.
