ABSTRACT
Patients in the palliative phase of a disease often suffer from pain, which leads to a significant reduction in quality of life. Since in most cases there is a progression rather than an improvement of the disease over time, pain therapy must also be dynamically adapted. Due to accompanying symptoms and the physical burden of the disease, treatment of pain is often difficult. In the palliative situation, pain should not only be understood as an excitation of nociceptors but is rather also an expression of mental stress. In this article, we would like to give an overview of the available drugs, application methods and alternative treatment options. Specifically, the article is divided into the following subsections non-opioid analgesics, opioids, co-analgesics, patient-controlled analgesia procedures, neuraxial and peripheral regional anesthesia procedures, neurolysis, supportive therapies and palliative sedation. Thus, when treating palliative patients, the focus should not only be on the one symptom of pain, but, in the sense of the bio-psycho-social model, a multimodal oriented treatment of the patient with all his symptoms, also including his relatives, must be carried out.
