Psychoonkologische Betreuung von Patienten mit Kopf-Hals-Tumoren

Onkologische Erkrankungen und ihre Behandlungen führen zu starken Einschränkungen in der körperlichen sowie psychosozialen Lebensqualität, wobei Patienten mit Kopf-Hals-Tumoren zu den am stärksten belasteten Gruppen von Krebspatienten zählen. Der Beitrag vermittelt einen aktuellen Überblick über zentrale Aspekte der psychoonkologischen Betreuung dieser Patienten.

Abstract

The aim of psychooncological interventions are to facilitate coping with the disease, to improve the psychological well-being and quality of life of the cancer patients as well as the strengthening of personal and social resources.

Apart from general strain going along with oncological diseases and its treatment, patients with head and neck cancer often also suffer from impairment of the most basic human functions (speech, swallowing, food intake).

Patients with head and neck cancer are one of the most distressed and burdened groups of cancer patients.

Psychooncological interventions apply proven psychological and psychotherapeutic methods and techniques.

Psychooncological treatment is based on the close interdisciplinary cooperation of different professional groups.
