Download or read book D lais des traitements adjuvants du cancer du sein et impact sur le pronostic des patientes written by Margaux Lesage and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction : Le cancer du sein est le premier cancer féminin en France. Parallélement à l'augmentation constante de son incidence, on assiste à une augmentation des délais pour l'accès aux soins. La maîtrise de ces délais est donc devenue un des objectifs phares de notre Plan Cancer 2014-2019. Objectif: Evaluer les délais d'accès aux traitements adjuvants du cancer du sein et étudier leur impact sur le pronostic des patientes. Matériels et Méthodes : Etude descriptive rétrospective unicentrique au Centre Hospitalo-Universitaire de Tours entre le 1er janvier 2009 et le 31 décembre 2013 . L'ensemble des patientes opérées pour un cancer du sein sur cette période ont été incluses, soit 2203 patientes. Les délais d'accès aux traitements adjuvants (hors hormonothérapie) ont été relevés : délai chirurgie-chimiothérapie et délai chirurgie-radiothérapie . La survie globale et la survie sans rechute (absence de récidive loco-régionale ou métastatique à distance) ont été utlisées pour étudier l'impact sur le pronostic. Résultats : Les délais d'accès aux traitements adjuvants de 1855 patientes ont été analysés. Toutes présentaient un cancer de type infiltrant. Celles-ci ont été réparties en 3 groupes pour les besoins de l'étude: patientes avec radiothérapie adjuvante seule, avec chimiothérapie néo-adjuvante, et avec chimiothérapie adjuvante. Le délai d'accès à la radiothérapie post-opératoire était en moyenne de 64 jours. En cas de chirurgie mammaire conservatrice, un délai d'accès à la radiothérapie de 60 jours a été identifié comme facteur pronostique impactant la survie globale et la survie sans rechute. La réalisation d'une radiothérapie à plus de 240 jours de la date de la première séance de chimiothérapie néo-adjuvante était un facteur pronostique indépendant. Enfin, le délai moyen chirurgie-chimiothérapie adjuvante était de 56 jours, et aucun lien entre ce délai et la survie des patientes n'a été retrouvé. Conclusion : Le respect des délais d'accès aux traitements adjuvants du cancer du sein impacte la survie des patientes, notamment en cas de chirurgie mammaire conservatrice.

Download or read book Comprehensive Cervical Cancer Control written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2006 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most women who die from cervical cancer, particularly in developing countries, are in the prime of their life. They may be raising children, caring for their family, and contributing to the social and economic life of their town or village. Their death is both a personal tragedy, and a sad and unnecessary loss to their family and their community. Unnecessary, because there is compelling evidence, as this Guide makes clear, that cervical cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable forms of cancer, as long as it is detected early and managed effectively. Unfortunately, the majority of women in developing countries still do not have access to cervical cancer prevention programmes. The consequence is that, often, cervical cancer is not detected until it is too late to be cured. An urgent effort is required if this situation is to be corrected. This Guide is intended to help those responsible for providing services aimed at reducing the burden posed by cervical cancer for women, communities and health systems. It focuses on the knowledge and skills needed by health care providers, at different levels of care.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for easy use at the PACS station of viewbox, here is your right-hand tool and pictorial guide for locating, identifying, and accurately diagnosing lesions of the extracranial head and neck. This beautifully produced atlas employs the spaces concept of analysis, which helps radiologists directly visualize complex head and neck anatomy and pathology. With hundreds of high quality illustrations, this book makes the identification and localization of complex neck masses relatively simple. This book provides CT and MR examples for more than 200 different diseases of the suprahyoid and infrahyoid neck, as well as clear and concise information on the epidemiology, clinical findings, pathology, and treatment guidelines for each disease. Each space within the head and neck has its own separate section, with examples of the common pathology that arises in this area. A standard format consisting of "Epidemiology, Clinical Presentation, Pathology, Treatment, and Imaging Findings," allows quick and efficient access to well-structured subjects. This uniform organization streamlines research for radiologists at any level of training. Although well over 200 pathologies are included within this remarkable text, Atlas of Head and Neck Imaging focuses primarily on the suprahyoid and infrahyoid neck, providing exceptionally detailed information on the most challenging aspects of this field. Radiologists and radiation oncologists will find this visual text ideal as a quick anatomic reference and diagnostic tool. Radiology residents preparing for board exams and neuroradiology fellows and staff studying for the CAQ exam will also benefit from the wealth of information.

Download or read book Cancer Pain Relief written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 1996 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of a guide, which introduced a simple, yet highly effective method for the relief of cancer pain. Thoroughly revised and updated, the new edition further refines the WHO method, which advocates the use of a small number of relatively inexpensive drugs, including morphine. Revisions draw on experiences with millions of patients around the world as well as new knowledge about the specific pain syndromes unique to cancer. Completely new are chapters describing the international system by which morphine and other opioids are made available for medical purposes. The book has two parts. Part one provides a practical guide to the relief of cancer pain, concentrating on drug treatment as the mainstay of pain management. The most extensive section sets out detailed guidelines for the selection and prescribing of non-opioid analgesics, opioid analgesics, drugs for neuropathic pain, and adjuvant drugs for the treatment of adverse effects, the enhancement of pain relief and the management of concomitant psychological disturbances. Information ranges from explanations of how specific drugs work, through the precautions to take in the presence of certain disorders, to a list of factors that influence the effectiveness of opioids. Concerning the use of opioids, readers are reminded that psychological dependence does not occur in cancer patients and that the only correct dose of morphine is the one that relieves the pain. Part two provides a guide to opioid availability. A discussion of the reasons why opioids continue to be underprescribed or difficult to obtain is followed by an explanation of the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs.
Download or read book World Health Organization Guidelines on the Pharmacological Treatment of Persisting Pain in Children with Medical Illnesses written by World Health Organization and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These guidelines have been developed to support countries to relieve pain in their paediatric populations. These guidelines address persisting pain in children caused by conditions such as cancer, HIV/AIDS, sickle-cell disease, burns, trauma, and phantom limb pain. Recommendations -- developed following a careful and transparent appraisal of available evidence -- are presented for the pharmacological treatment of mild, moderate and severe pain. The guidelines include chapters on the various systems used to classify pain and on the evaluation of pain, which reviews the available tools for routine pain measurement in children. Provision of sustainable pain relief within health care systems is covered in a separate chapter. Since morphine and other opioid analgesics -- required for the relief of moderate-to-severe pain in children -- are listed under the 1961 UN Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs, the new guidelines include an annex explaining the Convention's requirements for the handling and procurement of opioid analgesics for the relief of pain.
