The United States cancer population is growing and is projected to grow further. The current cancer population has a high rate of emergency department admission. Further training about oncologic emergencies may be needed and would ideally strive to care for the whole patient, including sequelae of the malignancy, progressive disease, symptom control, adverse effects of treatment, and palliative care. The James Cancer Hospital at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center fellowship training programs in oncologic emergency medicine are described.
美国癌症患者数量正在增长，并且预计还会进一步增加。目前的癌症患者群体急诊入院率很高。可能需要开展更多关于肿瘤急症的培训，理想情况下应努力为患者提供全面护理，包括恶性肿瘤的后遗症、疾病进展、症状控制、治疗不良反应以及姑息治疗。本文介绍了俄亥俄州立大学韦克斯纳医学中心的詹姆斯癌症医院和德克萨斯大学MD安德森癌症中心的肿瘤急诊医学 fellowship 培训项目。
