The National Committee for Palliative Care expressed their commitment to approach the decision of foregoing life sustaining treatment from a palliative care perspective, allowing the implementation of a care program to prevent therapeutic obstinacy, respect the dignity of the patient and their parents, and evaluate a rational, reasonable and adequate use of health and technological resources by focusing on the quality of life of the child, in order to realize their best interest, providing a guide that facilitates the decision-making process in dilemmatic situations in pediatrics.
