Patients who have lost capacity to make medical decisions and who have no readily identifiable surrogate decision maker are known as "unrepresented" (sometimes referred to as "unbefriended") patients. Estimates range from 5% of ICU deaths and 3-4% of long-term care residents are unrepresented. These cases raise clinical, ethical and legal questions about who should make decisions for these patients. This webinar will offer clinicians an approach to managing the growing epidemic of unrepresented older adults with a goal of ensuring that treatments are concordant with their preferences, values and best interests.
