What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Law

Her primary scientific interests are in Anesthesia, Palliative care, Cancer pain, Analgesic and MEDLINE. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Oral administration, Hydromorphone, Chronic pain and Naloxone. Her studies in Oral administration integrate themes in fields like Laxative, Constipation and Methylnaltrexone, Naloxegol.

Her Palliative care research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Psychological intervention and Family medicine, Specialty. Her work carried out in the field of Cancer pain brings together such families of science as Physical therapy and Psychiatry. As part of her studies on Analgesic, Kathleen M. Foley often connects relevant subjects like Mood.

Her most cited work include:

  • Pain measurement: an overview (894 citations)
  • The treatment of cancer pain. (851 citations)
  • Chronic use of opioid analgesics in non-malignant pain: Report of 38 cases (688 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Kathleen M. Foley mainly investigates Palliative care, Anesthesia, Cancer pain, Cancer and Nursing. The study incorporates disciplines such as Assisted suicide, Health care, MEDLINE and Family medicine in addition to Palliative care. The Anesthesia study combines topics in areas such as Oral administration, Hydromorphone and Chronic pain.

Her research investigates the link between Cancer pain and topics such as Intensive care medicine that cross with problems in Neuropathic pain. Her study with Cancer involves better knowledge in Internal medicine. Her Analgesic study incorporates themes from Opioid receptor and Pharmacotherapy.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Palliative care (24.77%)
  • Anesthesia (32.88%)
  • Cancer pain (22.07%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2005-2021)?

  • Palliative care (24.77%)
  • Nursing (16.22%)
  • MEDLINE (8.11%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Palliative care, Nursing, MEDLINE, Family medicine and Public health. The Palliative care study which covers Developing country that intersects with Analgesic. Her Nursing research integrates issues from Government, Consciousness, Epidemiology and Health care.

Kathleen M. Foley interconnects Psychiatry, Intensive care medicine, Commission, Global health and Curative care in the investigation of issues within MEDLINE. When carried out as part of a general Family medicine research project, her work on Physician assisted suicide is frequently linked to work in Clinical Practice, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Her studies deal with areas such as Anesthesia, Neuropathic pain, Incidence and Etiology as well as Quality of life.

Between 2005 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The Public Health Strategy for Palliative Care (298 citations)
  • Alleviating the access abyss in palliative care and pain relief—an imperative of universal health coverage: the Lancet Commission report (295 citations)
  • NCCN clinical practice guidelines in oncology: palliative care. (196 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Law

Kathleen M. Foley spends much of her time researching MEDLINE, Palliative care, Nursing, Family medicine and Chronic pain. Her MEDLINE research includes themes of Late recovery, Psychiatry and Public policy. Her research investigates the connection with Palliative care and areas like Health care which intersect with concerns in Drug availability and Pain control.

Her Chronic pain research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Intervention, Analgesic, Guideline and Intensive care medicine. Her Intensive care medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Anesthesia, Quality of life, Incidence and Etiology. Her World health studies intersect with other subjects such as Cancer pain and Cancer.
