“…We developed codes from the data, however it was clear a priori, due to the nature of the exercise, what was likely to emerge from the data. We considered the bucket list approach to coding described by Periyakoil and colleagues [6] however using applied-coding methods (only applying their bucket list categories/schema to our data) would not be appropriate because it would not capture the more personalized nature of many of the responses we received.…”

“…Bucket lists often include very action-oriented aspirations, things not previously done and yet to be ticked off. Bucket lists can be a wish list of the unachieved, a recognition of our own mortality, or a reflection of personal values [6].…”

“…Few previous studies have examined people’s wishes regarding what they want to do before they die. Periyakoil and colleagues [6] administered an anonymous online public survey to 3056 participants across the United States asking them to list things on their bucket list, defined as “things that one has not done before but wants to do before dying” (p. 2). These authors identified six primary themes: travel, accomplish a personal goal, achieve specific life milestones, spend quality time with friends and family, achieve financial stability, and do a daring activity.…”

Few previous studies have formally examined people’s wishes regarding what they want to do before they die. This study aimed to describe responses to an activity within a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) where people considered what was important when faced with their own mortality. We asked participants to complete the following: “Before I Die, I want to…”. The content of participants’ responses (n = 633) was analysed qualitatively with a coding schema developed and then applied. All authors independently coded the first 100 “Before I Die” statements, followed by a second round of coding where themes were verified and confirmed. Following this, two independent raters coded all 633 responses, obtaining 95.24% agreement (Cohen’s Kappa = 0.789, p < 0.0005). Twelve themes emerged from the data: family; do an activity; personal aspiration; live life fully, happiness; love; the greater good; peace; legacy; gratitude; religion; and health. Responses could also be distinguished as being inward-facing (about the self), and outward-facing (about others). Reflecting on what is important and on what a person wishes to achieve or address before they die can be seen as a companion process to advance care planning which addresses what an individual wants to plan to manage their actual death.

“…The bucket list is a simple framework that can be used to engage patients about their healthcare decision-making. Knowing a patient's bucket list can aid clinicians in relating each treatment option to its potential impact (if any) on the patient's life and life goals to promote informed decision-making (Periyakoil et al 2018).…”

“…Responses from 40 randomly identified participants with a bucket list (development cohort) were analyzed to identify the six key bucket list themes; the remaining 3016 participants were used for the validation study. Six primary themes were identified: the desire to travel (78.5%), desire to accomplish a personal goal (78.3%), desire to achieve specific life milestones (51%), desire to spend quality time with friends and family (16.7%), desire to achieve financial stability (24.3%), and desire to do a daring activity (15%) (Periyakoil et al 2018).…”

Medical orders for life-sustaining treatment (MOLST); Medical orders for scope of treatment (MOST); Physician orders for life-sustaining treatment (POLST); Physician orders for scope of treatment (POST); POLST paradigm program (PPP); Portable medical orders for life-sustaining treatment (POLST); Provider orders for life-sustaining treatment (POLST) Definition Advance Care Planning Advance care planning (ACP) is a communication process that aims to help an individual plan for future medical care if the person is unable to make his or her own medical decisions. An estimated 45-70% of older adults facing end-oflife (EOL) treatment decisions are incapable of making those decisions themselves (Institute of Medicine [IOM] 2014). ACP helps an individual prepare for a sudden unexpected illness or injury, from which the person may recover, as well as the dying process and ultimately death. The goal of ACP is to ensure that individuals receive care consistent with their expressed preferences during serious and chronic illnesses (Sudore et al. 2017). An additional goal of ACP is to ensure the desired care will help the person live well as death approaches and die in their preferred setting. ACP applies to all adults 18 years of age and older. ACP empowers a person to authorize a trusted individual to make future health decisions if and only if the person cannot do so and to share personal values, beliefs, and what matters most ahead of time. Advance directives (AD) are legal documents completed at the end of the ACP process that outline a plan for future care in the event a person loses the ability to make medical decisions, like the healthcare proxy (HCP) or durable power of attorney for health care (DPAHC) and the living will (LW). Medical Orders at the End of Life Medical orders at the end of life are patient-centered decisions that outline current patient preferences for cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the event of cardiac and/or pulmonary arrest as well as preferences in the event of cardiac and/or pulmonary insufficiency, including but not limited to ventilator support, hospitalization, artificial hydration and nutrition, antibiotics, dialysis, blood transfusions, etc. Creation of a set of medical orders is based on a thoughtful discussion and/or series of discussions with the seriously ill
