Abstract

Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) is a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional medicine. However, prevalence of CAM use is increasing in both cancer patients and the general population. Many cancer patients use CAM to provide treatment or cure, support treatment or cure, prevent cancer and recurrence, as a substitute for conventional treatment, and as a last resort in combination with conventional medicine. The purpose of this review was to provide information regarding the reasons for CAM use in cancer patients and the associated factors.

Abstract

Tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi (TAT) henüz konvansiyonel tıbbın bir parçası olarak kabul edilmeyen sağlık bakım sistemleri, ürünleri ve uygulamalardır. Ancak, TAT kullanım sıklığı hem genel popülasyonda hemde kanser hastaları arasında artmaktadır. Birçok kanser hastası konvansiyonel tedavilerle birlikte, tedavi olma/sağlama, tedaviye destek olma, kanserin tekrarlamasını önleme, konvansiyonel tedaviler yerine kullanma ve son bir çare olarak TAT kullanmaktadır. Bu derlemede, kanser hastalarının TAT kullanım nedenleri ve bunu etkileyen faktörlerle ilgili bilgiler verilmektedir.
