Perception of integrative care in paediatric oncology-Perspectives of parents and patients.

CONCLUSION: The analysed integrative care programme is perceived as a strong patient and family-centred approach of support during the oncological paediatric treatment. From a salutogenetic viewpoint, this program aims to strengthen the dimension of manageability within the concept of sense of coherence. Parents are given supportive means to manage side effects and ease their child's suffering, through touch and attention that can be very beneficial. PMID: 33248249 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
