Palliative Care and Supportive Oncology
Palliative Care and Supportive Oncology
- Symptom Management: Pain, nausea, fatigue, and other common symptoms.
- Psychosocial Oncology: Addressing the emotional and mental health needs of patients.
- End-of-Life Care: Hospice care, ethical issues, and patient-family communication.
- Integrative Oncology: Use of complementary therapies alongside conventional treatments.
Palliative care in cancer treatment prioritizes enhancing the quality of life for patients by addressing their physical, emotional, and psychological challenges, especially in advanced stages. It focuses on alleviating symptoms and managing pain while offering vital support to both patients and families. Supportive oncology expands on this by focusing on treatments that help patients manage side effects from cancer therapies like chemotherapy and radiation. Combining palliative care with supportive oncology ensures a holistic approach to cancer treatment, focusing not only on symptom relief but also on emotional well-being, providing compassionate care throughout the treatment process.
