“…During implementation of the preventive measures, limitations of human resources affect also the compliance with the prevention guidelines, as shown by a study in Jordan where the nurse to patient ratio of 1:1 was the only predictor of higher compliance with the guidelines (Aloush and Alsaraieh, 2018). Effective strategies may be used to overcome this challenge during interventions, including assigning a nurse as a unit-based quality nurse (Thom et al, 2014), or assembly of an intervention team of physician, infection control nurse, and ICU nurse to assess and follow up CLABSI cases (Hussain et al, 2017).…”

Recently, despite the development of cancer pain treatment, many cancer patients still suffer from pain. This review aimed to explore the patients-related barriers to pain management among cancer patients. The electronic searching was conducted in a different database: Google Scholar, CINAHL and PubMed. According to previous studies barriers can classified into patients/family-related barriers, health care provided-related barriers, and institutional-related barriers. Patient-related barriers were reluctant to report pain, fear from tolerance, addiction, and side effect, and culture. This review provides summary data about the patient-barriers to effective cancer pain control.
