摘要
The most common psychiatric emergencies observed in patients with cancer are severe anxiety, delirium, depression, and suicidal inclinations/attempts. Patients with advanced cancer are at a particular risk, and treating oncologists need to be familiar with management strategies. This article presents strategies for the identification, assessment, and management of these emergencies.
