A standardized multidisciplinary step-by-step approach to improve the compliance of young (or difficult) children having to undergo radiotherapy was described and applied. The procedure is called SIESTA, which stands for show-imagination-evaluation-support-treatment-anesthesia. Preliminary assessments suggest that the SIESTA approach was effective: the rate of young patients (≤6 years) requiring anesthesia decreased from 27% (14/52 cases) in 2011-2012 (before the procedure was adopted) to 13% (6/46) in 2018.
一种标准化的多学科逐步方法，用于提高需要接受放射治疗的年幼（或困难）儿童的依从性，已被描述并应用。该程序称为 SIESTA，代表展示-想象-评估-支持-治疗-麻醉。初步评估表明，SIESTA 方法是有效的：需要麻醉的年轻患者（≤6 岁）的比例从 2011-2012 年（采用该程序之前）的 27%（14/52 例）降至 2018 年的 13%（6/46）。
