- Objective: This study aimed to identify trends in palliative care (PC) and life-sustaining procedures (LSP) provision and factors related to palliative care provision in patients with cervical cancer in the United States (US).

The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) was adopted for calculating annual change of PC and LSP. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to investigate factors related to PC. Results: The rate of PC consultation in patients with cervical cancer in the US increased steadily from 2.5% in 2008 to 12.8% in 2017 with the CAGR reaching 17.9% (p for trend <0.001). The annual change in the percentage of LSP was not statistically significant in the entire cervical can[95% confidence interval] = 0.95, [0.91-0.99]). Blacks, Hispanics, and
