  • Title: [Consideration concerning a care orientated medicine for the patient with terminal stage of cancer].
    Author: Watanabe R, Kimoto H, Arai K, Hoshiyama S.
    Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 2002 Dec; 29 Suppl 3():506-9. PubMed ID: 12536840.
    Abstract:
    Home care medicine plays an important role in the care of terminal patients with redundant diseases such as cancer. In this study, we propose a "simple-style medicine" consisting in the participation of both medical and co-medical staffs and the use of Kampo medicine. This system satisfied various and individual requests from terminal patients. We present 2 terminal patients for whom this "simple-style", home care-orientated medicine was effective. This system can contribute to the quality of life of patients who need palliative, home care medicine.
