Practical Management of Complex Cancer Pain cover

This new edition of the Practical Management of Complex Cancer Pain has been fully updated and expanded, with five new chapters on novel interventional techniques in cancer pain amelioration. The book provides advice on advanced pain management, emphasising the suitability and selection of patients for different invasive and complex procedures based on patient history. Case histories are included throughout the text to give the reader insight into the complexities of holistic management, with pain being only one component in the distress that cancer causes for both patients and families. The book also covers cancer pain management for patients in a community setting, and the collaboration between pain and palliative medicine. Concise, practical, and evidence-based, this guide is essential reading for all pain and palliative care specialists in the community, hospital, and hospice settings.
