	WHO Guidelines for the pharmacological and radiotherapeutic management of cancer pain in adults and adolescents World Health Organization WHO (2019) C_WHO View PDF(334) Download (171) Add to my MEDBOX The aims of these guidelines are to provide guidance to health-care providers (i.e. the end-users of these guidelines: physicians, nurses, pharmacists and caregivers) on the adequate relief of pain associated with cancer. They also assist policy-makers, programme managers and public health personnel to create and facilitate appropriately balanced policies on opioids and prescribing regulations for effective and safe cancer pain management. Proper and effective stewardship of opioid analgesics in the cancer treatment setting is essential to ensure the safety of patients and to reduce the risk of diversion of medicine into society. The goal of cancer pain management is to relieve pain to a level that allows for an acceptable quality of life Tags: pain management, pain control, cancer, Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), guideline, Source: https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/hand

	A short guide to cancer screening. Increase effectiveness, maximize benefits and minimize harm World Health Organization WHO, Regional Office of Europe (2022) C1 View PDF(36) Download (38) Add to my MEDBOX The purpose of cancer screening tests is to detect pre-cancer or early-stage cancer in asymptomatic individuals so that timely diagnosis and early treatment can be offered, where this treatment can lead to better outcomes for some people. The aim of a cancer screening programme is either to reduce mortality and morbidity in a population by early detection and early treatment of a cancer (for example, breast screening) or to reduce the incidence of a cancer by identifying and treating its precursors (such as cervical and colorectal screening). This short guide is designed to be a quick reference that contains the important ideas about cancer screening.
