Supportive care in lung cancer: Milestones over the past 40 years
2015, Journal of Thoracic OncologyCitation Excerpt :In 2005, Brown et al.42 examined the correlations among fatigue, systemic inflammatory response, and psychological distress and found that fatigue and poor physical function was more related to Karnofsky Performance status and psychological distress than weight loss and anemia. The inclusion of psychosocial support, support groups, counseling and pharmacological interventions for patients experiencing LC from diagnosis to end of life and curative treatment to palliative treatment has been supported by research in psychosocial implications of coping with LC.30,31,39,41,43 Despite evidence of the benefits of psychosocial care, however, the financial support has lagged behind the support for treatment-related research, something that needs to improve in the next decade.
