Pediatric palliative oncology : bridging silos of care through an embedded model
Article
Over the past decade, a growing partnership between the fields of oncology and palliative care (PC) has emerged, giving rise to the nascent discipline of palliative oncology. The relatively recent finding that patients with cancer who receive early integration of PC experience improved survival and quality of life (QOL) has stimulated a wave of research corroborating the beneficial impact of PC integration within adult cancer care paradigms.
Within the field of pediatric oncology, similar efforts to study the value of pediatric palliative care (PPC) are gaining traction.
