Abstract:
Advancements in the treatment of cancers and organ failures have significantly improved survival rates and increased the number of cancer patients requiring and benefiting from intensive care unit (ICU) admission. As a result, critical care has become a vital component of modern cancer treatment. While, in many ways, intensive care for cancer patients is similar to that for other severely ill individuals, there are specific challenges unique to this group that require specialized expertise and knowledge. Effectively managing critically ill cancer patients requires proficiency in oncology, critical care, and palliative medicine. Therefore, cancer specialists must be well-versed in the essential aspects of intensive care for these patients. This review offers an overview of the latest approaches in the personalized management of critically ill cancer patients.
