Overview

Alcohol increases the risk of many oncological diseases. It also complicates the oncological treatment of patients who abuse alcohol. Abstinence from alcohol should therefore be recommended in both primary and secondary prevention of cancer. In oncology, like in other clinical disciplines, brief intervention can be used in alcohol-related problems. Brief intervention techniques are useful, simple, and take a minimum of time, which is why we deal with them in more detail. Excessive stress and alcohol abuse pose a problem not only for patients but also for some oncologists. In the final part of the paper, we will focus on preventing excessive stress and alcohol abuse among oncology workers and will offer some specific options.

Keywords:

alcohol – alcohol abuse – tumors – oncologists – brief intervention
