No patient revoked their AMD. Cancer and non-cancer patients showed similar rates of AMD concordance, frequency of Accident &amp; Emergency Department (AED) visits or acute ward admissions, duration of hospital stays in the 30\u00a0days before death, and prevalence of receiving invasive or intensive treatments.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our study demonstrated that PC team currently plays a pivotal role in AMD completion, and AMD remains important in ensuring patients\u2019 care preferences are executed across different medical conditions.
