Abstract

Palliative care is a strategy to provide comprehensive care to people with chronic, advanced and incurable diseases, care that demands holistic care that integrates the knowledge of different professionals not only in salud, but in other areas of training, to achieve an articulated way to respond to the needs of the sick person and their close relatives, leaving aside the traditional hegemonic model that is based on the search for healing, from a single knowledge; In the search for this ideal, various concepts such as multidisciplinarity and interdisciplinarity have been used, which, although not yet fully internalized, are advancing towards transdisciplinary palliative care.

This article presents a reflection on transdisciplinarity from the perspective of the author Castro Gómez, this concept from university education and the impact on the work reality of professionals regardless of the discipline to which they belong, accompanied by a reflection of the transdisciplinary concept in palliative care and the possible impact on the resolution of palliative needs of the sick person and his family, revealing one of the biggest challenges for health professionals who provide care in this area
