To provide a review of the problem of cancer pain and cancer pain management around the world.
Review articles, World Health Organization reports, guidelines, and personal experience relating to international efforts in the relief of cancer pain.
Cancer pain is a worldwide problem that is not even addressed in most countries of the world because of limited options for cancer treatment and scare resources. Yet pain relief for many patients is possible in developing countries with international assistance and support.
Oncology nurses have the ability to advocate for the needs of patients with cancer throughout the world. Oncology nurses can work with nurses in developing countries to enhance pain management through support of existing programs, serving as volunteers, and recruitment of resources to assist nurses in these countries.
综述全球癌症疼痛及癌症疼痛管理问题。
综述文章、世界卫生组织报告、指南以及与国际癌症疼痛缓解工作相关的个人经验。
癌症疼痛是一个全球性问题，由于癌症治疗选择有限和资源匮乏，世界上大多数国家甚至都未解决这一问题。然而，在国际援助和支持下，发展中国家的许多患者有可能缓解疼痛。
肿瘤护士有能力倡导全球癌症患者的需求。肿瘤护士可以与发展中国家的护士合作，通过支持现有项目、担任志愿者以及募集资源来协助这些国家的护士，从而加强疼痛管理。
