Abstract:
Objective:To retrieve, summarize and evaluate the best evidence for the non-pharmacological management of patients with cancer pain, so as to provide an evidence-based basis for the scientific management of cancer pain by healthcare professionals.Methods:A systematic search of the national and international literature on the non-pharmacological management of cancer pain was conducted, with a timeframe of January 2017 to January 2024. The quality of the included literature was evaluated, and evidence was extracted and summarized for those that met the quality criteria.Results:A total of 18 papers were included, including one clinical decision, seven guidelines, three expert consensus, and seven systematic reviews. Twenty-eight pieces of evidence were summarized around six themes of pain assessment, cognitive-behavioral interventions, physical therapy, interventional therapy and surgery, and self-management education and follow-up.Conclusions:Healthcare professionals should develop a patient-centered, appropriate and feasible non-pharmacological management plan for cancer pain with multiple agreements with patients and families, taking into account the clinical context and individual differences of patients in China, in order to improve the quality of life.
