Attitude changes of cancer pain and opioids among cancer patients: a cross-sectional study spanning a decade
Over a decade, although patients had more positive attitudes towards cancer pain management, their knowledge and health education about cancer pain was poor. This finding suggests that health professionals should work together to disseminate knowledge about cancer pain and strengthen health education to manage cancer pain well and improve the quality of life of cancer patients.
