简介:医学研究所、美国临床肿瘤学会和欧洲医学肿瘤学会促进癌症治疗的多学科方法。III期非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)是一组异质性疾病,需要协调医疗、放射和外科肿瘤学的护理。III期NSCLC的最佳护理强调了多学科approach.Methods的必要性:从肿瘤登记数据,我们确定了2010年3月至2013年3月期间在利哈伊谷健康网络看到的所有III期NSCLC病例。将患者在胸部多学科诊所(MDC)就诊时接受的护理与未在胸部MDC就诊时接受的护理进行比较。
Introduction: The Institute of Medicine, the American Society of Clinical Oncology, and the European Society of Medical Oncology promote a multidisciplinary approach for the treatment of cancer. Stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents a heterogeneous group of diseases necessitating coordination of care among medical, radiation, and surgical oncology. The optimal care of stage III NSCLC underscores the need for a multidisciplinary approach.Methods: From tumor registry data, we identified all cases of stage III NSCLC seen at Lehigh Valley Health Network between March 2010 and March 2013. The care received by patients when seen in the thoracic multidisciplinary clinic (MDC) was compared with the care received when not seen in the thoracic MDC.Results: All patients seen in the MDC, compared to
