Pain management is of vital concern to patients with cancer, as well as a recent program offers hope for best treatment using a variable approach designed to offer the patient more control through knowledge as well as learned techniques. The SCION-PAIN program will be tested on 240 oncology patients in two hospitals in Germany as well as will address pharmacologic pain management, nonpharmacologic pain management as well as discharge management. The study aims to prove that patients with acquired self-management skills are best equipped to manage pain after discharge.
