Chemotherapy

Correct diagnosis. You should go to a chemotherapist with a detailed opinion of a pathologist, issued on the basis of analysis of biopsy material. Before starting chemotherapy, it is necessary to make sure the accuracy of the diagnosis - cancer, ie to confirm the presence of a malignant tumor. This is done by examining the tumor tissue obtained by biopsy (excisional, fine or thick-needle, trepan biopsy). The universal clinic "Oberig" performs all types of biopsies with subsequent histological examination of the tumor in its own  Pathohistological Center .

In addition, pathomorphologists provide second opinion services. If the diagnosis of "cancer" has already been established, make sure it is accurate, because it depends on the effectiveness of all subsequent treatment. Clinic pathologists are ready to give their opinions on biopsy materials taken from other clinics.

Chemotherapeutic treatment of cancer at the Universal Clinic "Oberig" is performed strictly according to international protocols, following the standards of the European Association of Oncologists (ESMO). An experienced chemotherapist, PhD, guided by effective, proven worldwide treatment regimens, individually selects a course of chemotherapy for each patient in the clinic. In order for the treatment to be as effective as possible, the doctor must take into account the morphological form of the cancer (histological and immunohistochemical structure), disease prevalence, age of the patient, presence of concomitant diseases and many other factors.

Qualification, experience of a chemotherapist and use of only evidence-based protocols for cancer treatment - the key to effective treatment and improvement overall survival.

Patients who receive long-term chemotherapy with aggressive chemotherapeutic drugs are primarily affected by the veins because their walls are burned. In such cases, an important advantage is the use by patients of special ports for long-term intravenous infusions . Such ports for chemotherapy allow you to inject drugs directly into the central vessels, without the need for permanent catheterization.

In the clinic "Oberig" doctors not only install such ports, but also perform their revision or replacement during displacement. Installation of the port is a high-tech manipulation, which is performed in an X-ray operating room under the control of ultrasound and takes about half an hour. The medical staff of the clinic successfully works with chemotherapy ports that have been installed in foreign clinics in order to continue chemotherapy treatment in Ukraine.

Trained nurses from the Oberig Universal Clinic, who perform the necessary chemotherapy manipulations, follow clear schemes and procedures to make the chemotherapy session safe and effective for the patient. Their knowledge of the specifics of different types and regimens of chemotherapy is a significant advantage for the patient undergoing treatment in a clinic under the supervision of qualified personnel. Dilution of chemotherapeutics and preparation for administration is carried out in special rooms with fume cupboards, dilution systems and dose calculation of chemotherapeutic drugs.

A patient undergoing chemotherapy in the clinic "Oberig" is under the supervision of experienced doctors and paramedics, uses the services of Laboratories of the clinic < / a> (laboratory diagnosis is performed before chemotherapy and constant monitoring after chemotherapy). In case of complications, especially from hematopoiesis, modern methods of correction of adverse events are used, which allows not to interrupt the course of chemotherapy.
