National Knowledge Week on Palliative and Supportive Care for Chronic Non-Malignant Diseases: 22-28 October 2007

This knowledge week makes a start on several topics at once by producing a very concise tour around the current knowledge in 5 chronic 'non-cancer' diseases. It covers a different condition each day: Chronic Heart Failure, COPD, End-Stage Renal Disease, Lymphoedema and Nervous System Diseases. With support from expert contributors, we aim to build on this with a full national knowledge week devoted to each topic in 2008.
