Background: Children with chronic conditions, including cancer, have been shown to have high-intensity end-of-life care. We assessed the frequency and timing of invasive procedures that children with cancer undergo during their terminal hospital admission (THA).
Methods: The Pediatric Health Information System database was queried from 2011 to 2015 for patients ages 1-18 years with a "malignancy" flag who died in the hospital.
