Sites will be randomised to either "standard intervention arm A", or "standard intervention arm B". Patients in standard intervention arm A will be managed with continuance of oral intake (if appropriate), and regular "mouth care". Mouth care will be performed at least every four hours, and will correspond to the investigational site's policy / procedures for oral care in the terminal phase. Patients in standard intervention arm B will be managed with continuance of oral intake (if appropriate), regular "mouth care", and CAH, i.e. parenteral fluids. Again, mouth care will be performed at least every four hours, and will correspond to the investigational site's policy / procedures for oral care in the terminal phase. The parenteral fluids may be administered either intravenously or subcutaneously at the discretion of the medical and nursing team. The type of fluid to be administered will be dextrose saline (i.e. 4% dextrose, 0.18% sodium chloride), and the volume to be administered will be dependent on the patient's weight.
