RESUMEN
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) are frequent and dreaded side effects in cancer treatments. CINV has a major impact on patient's condition and quality of life. Prophylaxis is tailored to patient's profile and the emetogenic level of their chemotherapy. The aim of this study is to update the recommendations for CINV prevention and management in pediatric onco-hematology for use in France, by adapting the guidelines of the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario (POGO). Clinical practice guideline adaptation is a recognized method for tailoring existing clinical practice guidelines to local context. A multidisciplinary French-speaking panel was formed to discuss about POGO guideline recommendations for the acute and delayed phases, breakthrough, refractory and anticipatory CINV and the evidence supporting them. Panel members were asked whether they wanted to adopt, modify or reject each of the POGO guideline recommendations. Panel members translated each recommendation and adapted recommendations for an implementation in France. Their acceptance required agreement at least 80 % of panel members. Algorithms and tables were created, listing all the recommendations and providing a better overview for decision-making process adapted to the patient's profile. These recommendations should be reviewed for implementation at French institutions caring for pediatric cancer patients and once implemented, the rates of adherence to recommendations and CINV control should be reported.
