被诊断患有乳腺癌的患者有很多需求,首先包括期望治愈。在不可能治愈的地方,总有希望和精神支持的地方。此外,无论是早期还是晚期疾病,患者都需要症状控制,包括缓解疼痛、控制恶心和呕吐以及心理困扰。为了实现所有这些目标,需要超越科学医学的作用。本立场文件描述了由代表欧洲乳腺学会 (EUSOMA) 的研讨会制定的补充和替代医学 (CAM) 的使用指南。 (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
Patients diagnosed with breast cancer have many needs that for a start include the expectation of cure. Where cure is unlikely there is always a place for hope and spiritual support. Furthermore whether dealing with the early stages or with the advanced disease patients require symptomatic control that encompasses pain relief, control of nausea and vomiting and psychological distress. To achieve all of these goals there is a need that goes beyond the role of scientific medicine. This position papers describes the guidelines for the use of complimentary and alternative medicine (CAM) developed by a workshop on behalf of the European Society of Mastology (EUSOMA).
