Abstract
The treatment of cancer pain is improving, but pain remains a significant problem. Although better analgesics with greater efficacy and fewer side effects are needed, the most significant problem regarding the appropriate management of cancer pain remains a lack of knowledge among physicians treating cancer patients. Cancer management should be undertaken within a palliative care model, in which autonomy and respect for individuals and their families guides all aspects of care.Entities:
