Syringe drivers play a vital role in palliative care, delivering continuous subcutaneous medication to manage distressing symptoms such as pain, nausea, breathlessness, and agitation. This essential tool supports effective symptom control, particularly in the community setting, where timely and accurate assessment is critical for addressing the complex needs of patients.

The Comprehensive Triage Questionnaire for syringe driver initiation has been specifically designed to streamline the evaluation process. By systematically addressing key factors—clinical urgency, logistical considerations, and patient-specific needs—this tool ensures that decisions are both patient-centered and resource-conscious.
