abstract: 'ObjectivesThis Special Issue of Psycho-Oncology is focused on challenges
|
|
|
|
and opportunities in the provision of psychosocial care to patients in
|
|
|
|
low and middle-income countries (LMICs). The aim is to highlight global
|
|
|
|
disparities and inequity in the provision of evidence-based,
|
|
|
|
culturally-sensitive and timely psychosocial care and to showcase the
|
|
|
|
work of researchers and practitioners to address this gap. We hope that
|
|
|
|
this Issue will help to advance the psychological and social dimensions
|
|
|
|
of cancer care in all parts of the world. MethodsThe focus of the papers
|
|
|
|
is on research and clinical innovations in LMICs that target the
|
|
|
|
psychological, social and cultural dimensions of cancer and on
|
|
|
|
interventions to improve or maintain the psychological well-being,
|
|
|
|
social functioning and/or quality of life of those who are affected and
|
|
|
|
their families. ResultsThese papers draw attention to guidelines,
|
|
|
|
resource needs, clinical service evaluation, emerging research and
|
|
|
|
knowledge translation within LMICs that advance knowledge and
|
|
|
|
implementation in the field of psycho-oncology. ConclusionsInnovations
|
|
|
|
and advances in psycho-oncology are emerging from LMICs to enhance the
|
|
|
|
care of patients with cancer and their families in these regions and in
|
|
|
|
all parts of the world. A sustained global initiative is now needed to
|
|
|
|
ensure that guidelines for such care are routinely included in global,
|
|
|
|
national and local cancer control plans and that essential resources and
|
|
|
|
attention are directed to implement them.'
