autoría del trabajo fin de grado Declaración de cumplir
los requisitos establecidos en la convocatoria. Resumen
disponible también en Ingles: In cases of advanced stages
of an illness, as well as at the end of life, the most
widespread route for drug administration is oral. However,
it is known that more than 80% of cancer patients, as well
as many people who are suffering from chronic illnesses,
might benefit from the use of an alternative route. The
use of a butterfly needle has the objective of controlling
the symptoms, keeping the patient comfortable, and
improving quality of life. Due to the rise in the number
of people liable to receive palliative care, nursing
professionals ought to integrate this technique into their
common practice, as well as acquire the knowledge and
skills that enable them to use it properly.",
