Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Palliative care, Cancer, Internal medicine, Anesthesia and Surgery. His study in Palliative care is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Delirium, Intensive care medicine, Retrospective cohort study, Family medicine and Physical therapy. Within one scientific family, Eduardo Bruera focuses on topics pertaining to Emergency medicine under Cancer, and may sometimes address concerns connected to End-of-life care.

His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Oncology. His research in Anesthesia intersects with topics in Cancer pain and Equianalgesic. His work on Randomized controlled trial and Chemotherapy as part of general Surgery study is frequently linked to In patient, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Definition and classification of cancer cachexia: an international consensus (2356 citations)
  • The Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS): a simple method for the assessment of palliative care patients. (1721 citations)
  • Occurrence, causes, and outcome of delirium in patients with advanced cancer: a prospective study. (580 citations)
