Unmet care needs in people living with advanced cancer: a systematic review
Open accessAbstract
Purpose The support needs of cancer patients vary according to the phase of their cancer journey. Recent developments in healthcare are such that the advanced cancer phase is increasingly experienced as a chronic illness phase, with consequent changes in patient support needs. Understanding these needs, and identifying areas of unmet need, can enable us to develop services that are more adequate to the task of supporting this population.Methods We conducted a systematic search of four electronic databases to identify studies examining the unmet needs of people living with advanced cancer. Relevant data were extracted and synthesised; meta-analyses were conducted to obtain pooled estimates for prevalence of needs.Results We identified 23 studies (4 qualitative) for inclusion. Unmet needs were identified across a broad range of domains, with greatest prevalence in informational (30-55 %), psychological (18-42 %), physical (17-48 %), and functional (17-37 %) domains. There was considerable heterogeneity amongst studies in terms of methods of assessment, coding and reporting of needs, respondent characteristics, and appraised study quality.Conclusions Heterogeneity made it difficult to compare across studies and inflated confidence intervals for pooled estimates of prevalence-we need standardised and comprehensive approaches to assessment and reporting of unmet needs to further our understanding. Nonetheless, the review identified prominent needs across a range of (interacting) experiential domains. Moreover, by focussing on unmet needs for support, we were able to extrapolate potential implications for service development.

Care recipients with a mental illness or advanced or palliative disease have different needs, and in advanced disease grief and bereavement play a role.
“Care recipients with a mental illness (e.g., schizophrenia) or advanced or palliative disease were excluded as the needs of these groups differ and in the case of advanced disease grief and bereavement play a role.[21][22][23]”

The Abstract (page unavailable) says support needs vary by stage of the cancer journey and that advanced cancer brings changes in patient support needs. This supports the advanced-disease part of the rationale, but the paper does not establish different needs for people with mental illness or say that grief and bereavement play a role in advanced disease.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
