Emergency Medicine Australasia, 10/23/09
Bezzina AJ – The facilities surveyed reported that advance care directives are the exception rather than the rule.

This demonstrates low utilization and poor application, which has implications for care appropriate to patients' wishes and for resource use within the ED.
