摘要
The demand for palliative care is increasing globally, yet a notable lack of awareness continues to present a significant obstacle to its widespread adoption. The use of digital tools like Google Trends can help gauging public interest in specific topics. We used Google Trends to conduct a systematic search of terms related to palliative care from January 1, 2010, to May 10, 2023. The results were filtered by location, including worldwide and Latin American countries. We found a global increase in searches for terms related to palliative care, with a peak in December 2022 associated with the death of Brazilian footballer Pel & eacute;. Countries like Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia mirrored this trend, while others like Argentina and Peru did not. Interest in palliative care is on the rise in Latin America, albeit with notable regional variations.
