Expert consensus on the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy by integrated Chinese and Western medicine
HUO Jiege
Abstract：Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy(CIPN)is one of the common adverse reactions of chemotherapy.CIPN increases the suffering of tumor patients and reduces the quality of life.Therefore,some patients have to reduce the dose of chemotherapy drugs or even stop chemotherapy,which affects the treatment of tumors.This expert consensus discusses and recommends the definition,clinical features,pathogenesis,risk factors,diagnosis and clinical evaluation,TCM understanding and syndrome differentiation,prevention,treatment,education,and management of CIPN based on the literature review and expert voting.It is hoped that this consensus will improve clinicians'understanding and attention to CIPN,standardize the management of CIPN,and improve patient prognosis.
