“…China is one of the most frequent areas of cervical cancer. The number of new cases is about 100 thousand per year, accounting for 1/5 of the total number of new cases worldwide [13,14]. An important feature of case management is to improve patients' health behavior and promote patients' selfmanagement.…”

Objective. To construct a case management model of synchronous radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy and radiochemotherapy (CRR) for cervical cancer led by nurses and carry out preliminary implementation and evaluation, so as to explore a new model of nursing practice. Methods. Totally 80 cervical cancer patients were included in this study, 43 patients were in the experimental group, and 37 patients were in the control group. The clinical data, side effects, psychological reactions, and nutritional indexes were collected before and after the intervention. Results. The results of Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADs) showed that anxiety and depression scores decreased after intervention in the experimental group, and the difference between two groups had significant after intervention ( P < 0.05 ). Serum fatty acids, albumin, and cholesterol in the experimental group were decreased after the intervention. Moreover, the incidence of radiation vaginitis and radiation dermatitis had significant differences between the two groups ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion. The case management nursing practice mode of concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy for cervical cancer can effectively promote the self-management of risk factors, reduce the occurrence of complications, and improve the ability of self-care.

“…Despite the lack of population-based screening measures in the Philippines ( Zhao et al, 2022 ), little data exist that formally quantify national delays in cancer care. Most outpatients present to public facilities (i.e., rural health units or government hospital outpatient departments) for initial evaluation, although some opt to seek care from private clinics or traditional healers ( Dayrit et al, 2018 ).…”

“…Similarly, the country does not yet have national-level human papillomavirus vaccination and cervical cancer screening efforts, 34 despite the high burden of cervical cancer. Oncologist-driven education of the general public and primary care providers may improve access and adherence to screening.…”

PURPOSE In the Philippines, a lower middle-income country in Southeast Asia, 6 of 10 Filipinos die without seeing a doctor. To ensure universal access to cancer care, providers must be equitably distributed. Therefore, we evaluated the distribution of oncologists across all 17 regions in the Philippines. METHODS We gathered data from the official websites of national medical societies on their members' regional area of practice: Philippine Society of Medical Oncology, Philippine Radiation Oncology Society, Surgical Oncology Society of the Philippines, Society of Gynecologic Oncologists of the Philippines, and Philippine Society of Hospice and Palliative Medicine. We compared this with the regional census to determine the number of board-certified oncologists per 100,000 Filipinos. RESULTS For a population of almost 110 million, the Philippines has a total of 348 medical oncologists, 164 surgical oncologists, 99 radiation oncologists, 142 gynecologic oncologists, and 35 hospice and palliative medicine (HPM) specialists. This translates to 0.32 medical oncologists, 0.15 surgical oncologists, 0.09 radiation oncologists, 0.13 gynecologic oncologists, and 0.03 HPM specialists for every 100,000 Filipinos. The number of oncologists is highest in the National Capital Region in Luzon and lowest in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao. All regions have at least one medical and gynecologic oncologist. Two regions (12%) have no surgical oncologists, five regions (29%) have no radiation oncologists, and eight regions (47%) have no HPM specialists. CONCLUSION Efforts are needed to increase the number of oncologists and improve equity in their distribution to ensure universal access to cancer care in the Philippines.
