| Research Abstract |
In Japan nearly one in every three deaths is caused by cancer. With the intention of promoting palliative care in cancer (PCC), this study examined which level of evidence for PCC research was in demand, and considered issues surrounding PCC research: (1) To ascertain the general state of Japanese PCC research, we conducted content analysis of English articles accepted for publication by the publishers outside Japan. The results suggested lack of research papers with higher levels of evidence. (2) Using large-scale receipt database, we retrieved and reviewed information related to the usage levels of opioid for palliative care by physicians. (3) Based on the findings from the two studies, we interviewed physicians with palliative care experience to explore what kind of research evidence was perceived in need. Through the content analysis, seven key categories were extracted. The findings implied that clinicians in Japan should be rendered supports for promoting palliative care studies.
