[The use of Advance Care Planning in primary care medicine].

The ambulatory management of end-of-life patients is often a complex and delicate process for general practitioners. It is often difficult for them to tackle the question of the end of life and even more so to plan for it. The Advance Care Planning (ACP) aims overall to anticipate the end of life of patients and to ensure that their choices are respected, thereby improving their quality of life at the end of life.
