Prof Ebtesam Ahmed - St John's University New York, New York City, USA

Prof Ebtesam Ahmed speaks to ecancer at BGICC 2023 about cancer pain management in the adult patient population.

She discusses the European Society for Medical Oncology pain guidelines with the aim to educate oncologists about the importance of screening patients and assessing their pain.

Prof Ahmed also highlights how pain can be viewed as biopsychosocial as it can often lead patients to self-isolation, anxiety and depression.
