Brief Summary:
Pain control is a common and serious problem in cancer patients. Although WHO has developed a three-stage model of cancer pain management, 80% cancer patients still suffer moderate to severe pain in their daily life. When patients are with acute exacerbation or aggravate of pain, they usually visit the emergency department for more help.
