Palliative Care and Symptom Management in Older Patients with Cancer.

Koshy Alexander1, Jessica Goldberg2, Beatriz Korc-Grodzicki3.   

Abstract

Older patients with cancer are best served by a multidisciplinary approach with palliative care (PC) playing an integral role. PC focuses on symptom control irrespective of its cause and should not be associated only with terminal care. It provides an additional layer of support in the care of patients with cancer with an emphasis on quality of life. This article discusses the evaluation and management of pain and other common nonpain symptoms that occur in elderly patients with cancer, as well as end-of-life care.
