Prevalence of undertreatment in cancer pain. A review of published literature / S. Deandrea, M. Montanari, P.L. Moja, G. Apolone. - In: ANNALS OF ONCOLOGY. - ISSN 0923-7534. - 19:12(2008 Dec), pp. 1985-1991. [10.1093/annonc/mdn419]
Abstract:
Pain is a major health care problem for patients with cancer: despite the existence of guidelines for cancer pain management, undertreatment is a widespread problem. Pain Management Indexes (PMIs) evaluate the congruence between the patient's reported level of pain and the intensity/strength of the analgesic therapy. Negative scores indicate inadequate prescriptions.
