چکیده
Purpose In the Gemeinschaftskrankenhaus Herdecke (GKH) children and adolescents with cancer are routinely treated with integrative medicine approaches. In addition to guideline-based conventional treatment a multimodal therapy concept is applied which includes anthroposophic pharmacotherapy (particularly mistletoe extracts) and non-pharmacologic therapies (e.g. art-therapies, external embrocations, eurythmy therapy). We analysed the recalled satisfaction of parents of children treated for cancer in the centre for integrative pediatric oncology at GKH from 1999 to 2008.
