We would like to acknowledge and thank Dr. Ali for their comments regarding our article on pain and opioid administration in hospitalized patients with cancer. 3 Dr. Ali importantly extends the discussion about our findings that psychosocial factors are associated with more severe daily pain among hospitalized cancer patients. Specifically, they expand upon our recommendations that nonpharmacologic behavioral interventions may be especially beneficial for patients with cancer and pain in the hospital setting.Dr. Ali points to one particularly simple behavioral change that could be implemented—reducing sleep disruptions during hospitalization. Protecting the quality of sleep is likely important for reducing pain beyond the inpatient period as well. We have previously reported that baseline sleep disturbance is an independent predictor of persistent pain after breast cancer surgery 5 and that sleep and pain continue to be interconnected throughout the first year after an index cancer surgery. 2, 3 Among an outpatient cohort of chronic pain patients with cancer, we also observed that sleep disturbance was a consistent factor associated with worse pain severity and interference. 1 Thus, interventions aimed at promoting sleep hygiene may be a fruitful avenue for future research aimed at improving cancer pain outcomes.
