“…However, a large increase in the opioid dose did not generally occur in the last 2 days of life [54,55]. The time at which the opioid dose was reported was variable: including at baseline [17], measured daily [58], in the last 24h [53] or 48h [59] of life. The comparator varied between studies and included opioids vs no systemic opioids and high vs low dose opioids.…”

Others report no relationship between survival and overall dose or change in opioid dose [57][58][59]62,63]. In other studies, higher opioid dose or increasing doses of opioids were reported to be associated with a shorter survival (Table 1) [19,56,64].…”
