Cancer remains a major challenge for medicine and it continues to claim lives and cause great suffering. Pain is a symptom experienced by most cancer patients regardless of disease stage, and less than 50% of cancer pain patients achieve effective pain and symptom control though available therapies. If these therapies are utilized correctly, many more patients can achieve effective control.

Produktbeschreibung
Cancer remains a major challenge for medicine and it continues to claim lives and cause great suffering. Pain is a symptom experienced by most cancer patients regardless of disease stage, and less than 50% of cancer pain patients achieve effective pain and symptom control though available therapies. If these therapies are utilized correctly, many more patients can achieve effective control. While opioids are still seen as the mainstay of cancer pain treatment, it is necessary to examine whether this treatment strategy still holds true in the 21st century.

Cancer Pain provides a comprehensive, up-to-date, practical guide to the management of pain in cancer patients. The book provides a clear, concise explanation of cancer pain syndromes, a modern understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism and an overview of recent developments in creating pre-clinical cancer pain models. It offers the reader the wide and improved options for management of cancer pain inclinical practice, including the use of opioid and non-opioid drugs, and defines the role of non-pharmacological methods for pain control.

Cancer Pain also provides an overview of the latest developments in the management of cancer, which have major implications for the current and future thinking in cancer pain treatment strategy. This text is an invaluable resource for doctors, trainees and clinical nurse specialists in palliative medicine and oncology, and would be of interest to anyone who wishes to gain a better understanding of the complex nature of cancer pain and the tools available to alleviate it.

Rezensionen
From the book reviews:

Selected as "Highly Commended" at BMA Medical Book Awards for 2014.

"The books strengths are its relatively small size and comprehensive review of many of the evolving and grey areas of Cancer Pain. It is easy to read, and makes a point of reviewing complex, and often unsolved areas of practice with a straight-forward approach, using modern research. ... This is an extremely useful book, reviewing many of the difficult areas in current practice. Aimed mainly at the specialist; it is easy or read, with clear and useful references." (BMA Medical Book Awards, September, 2014)

"The book is certainly up-to-date. Each chapter begins with a short abstract and concludes with key points that allow the reader to quickly scan the chapter and glean the important details. ... the book would be useful to have on the shelf for reference. It provides a thorough overview of the field and serves to highlight the need for a better understanding of this subject." (Jonathan Yen, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, Vol. 61, May, 2014)
