The aim of this study was to evaluate psychological distress among 50 patients hospitalized in palliative care at the Oscar Lambret Cancer Center, Lille. We used two scales: The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and the Distress Thermometer Scale. The results have shown an estimated distress of 58% with the HADS, and of 42% with the DTS. On the whole, these two scales have highlighted a significant level of psychological distress.
