Cancer Pain Is Not the End; Being Pain-Free Is the Start

Cancer Pain Is Not the End; Being Pain-Free Is the Start

—Documenting the "Moonlight Emergency Pain Relief Station"

Cancer pain is one of the primary sufferings for advanced cancer patients. Approximately 45% of cancer patients experience significant pain, with the incidence rising to as high as 75% in advanced stages. For cancer patients, this is the most terrifying "invisible killer." Many patients mistakenly believe that they should "endure it and it will pass" or are unable to seek hospital treatment at night due to inconvenience. As a result, 50% to 80% of pain remains inadequately controlled, severely affecting patients' sleep quality and mental health.

The Emergency Department of Gansu Wuwei Tumor Hospital has established the "Moonlight Emergency Pain Relief Station." All medical staff, with their professionalism and compassion, provide a "pain-free starry sky" for cancer pain patients who face difficulties seeking hospital care.

This is not only a "first-aid station" for acute pain but also a "life supply station" for cancer patients battling their illness.
