Abstract

 Treatment approach to people with cancer pain had been evolving from ‘symptom control’ focus to a ‘quality of life’ focus, with increasing emphasis on functional restoration-based interventions. Rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary comprehensive multidimensional approach addressing biological, psychological and social determinants of body structure and function, activity limitations and participation restrictions. The objective of this short communication was to update the existing knolwedge on cancer pain rehabilitation from an evidence-informed perspective. There is insufficient evidence and limited number of studies existed on development of network groups, institute-based centers,self-directed learning modules, and drug therapy for improving rehabilitation practice and education in cancer pain.

Keywords: Cancer Rehabilitation; Palliative Care; Pain Management; Biopsychosocial Model.
