Optimizing Cancer Pain Evaluation and Management

The inaugural webinar of this new series provided an overview of the complex issues involved in achieving optimal cancer pain management, and it highlighted the importance of multilevel approaches to address these issues.

Three experts addressed barriers to optimal delivery of cancer care, including institutional and structural differences, cultural attitudes in patient-clinician interactions, and clinical care guidelines that inform cancer pain evaluation and management.
