  • Title: A case report: Pawspice for a visla with splenic lymphoma.
    Author: Villalobos AE.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 2011 May; 41(3):683-8. PubMed ID: 21601756.
    Abstract:
    This author's experience in oncology proposes "Pawspice," a new concept that offers early supportive care for pets with life-limiting disease, embracing palliative care and standard care. Pawspice offers compassionate and comprehensive symptom relief at diagnosis while addressing life-limiting diseases. The concept of Pawspice is to maintain quality of life with palliative care that improves the patient's debilitating conditions by 30% to 50%, while simultaneously administering standard care via gentle chemotherapy modified for low toxicity. This combination makes Pawspice different than palliative care (pain and symptom relief) or hospice (intense comfort care that precedes imminent death), which prevail in most conventional thinking.
