Nearly 80% of patients are disabled, Emergency Cancer

jakarta, most patients are not aware of the existence of cancer in his body, so that undiagnosed at an advanced stage. but it turns out nearly 80 percent of patients who come to the emergency is people with cancer."nearly 80 percent of patients who come to the emergency installation (igd) is a cancer patient," said dr. dr. sppd-rio rachman, khom detikhealth, when contacted monday (4/2/2013).dr. rio describes usually a complaint that appears already as there are more infections, tumors already engorged and even spread to other organs. for example, a tumor in the head already spread to the eye, so that the eyes should be removed."this delay is usually associated with the constraints of cost and lack of information," said dr rio.in the meantime the condition of cancer in indonesia alone currently numbers increased or more. the amount of the increase is in line with the increasing ease of communication and access to hospital-the hospital."for the diagnosis of cancer or not used to be difficult, it is now better, it also makes the cancer more numbers on the rise," said a doctor from the division of hematology and medical oncology department of pathology in the rscm.dr. rio said the problem is currently almost all patients ' stacked ' on the rscm, some people from outside coming to jakarta's rscm. but if his condition not be handled at the provincial hospital complex, except kankernya then the new complex has been referred to the rscm.for it is currently done in training for the rscm doctors sent by the hospitals so that later could handle diagnosis and also how the laksananya or treatment for cancer, so as not to need all patients to rscm.however, the government needs to do mapping of cancer overall conditions in indonesia. for example, for cervical cancer need treatment with radiation and chemotherapy, but unfortunately not all areas have the means to do radiation."because apparently in mataram, ntb absolutely no tools, but his doctor had radiation been trained but the prod does not exist, whereas the new radiation equipment had bali," he explained.another thing that should be a concern is the need for empowerment of patients by providing information about cancer, so that patients know what and treatment he was sick to be carried to how.(ver./vit )
