Poverty is associated with inferior psychosocial outcomes, higher rates of relapse, and decreased overall survival in children with cancer. Despite this, there are few evidence-based, poverty-targeted interventions and none specific to pediatric oncology. To address this gap, we developed and refined the Pediatric Cancer Resource Equity (PediCARE) intervention, a household material hardship (HMH) targeted intervention providing transportation and groceries to pediatric oncology families.

PediCARE：开发针对儿童癌症的针对贫困的干预措施

贫困与较差的心理社会结果、较高的复发率以及癌症儿童的总体生存率降低有关。尽管如此，很少有基于证据的、以贫困为目标的干预措施，也没有专门针对儿科肿瘤学的干预措施。为了解决这一差距，我们开发并完善了儿科癌症资源公平 (PediCARE) 干预措施，这是一种针对家庭物质困难 (HMH) 的干预措施，为儿科肿瘤科家庭提供交通和食品杂货。
