Abstract

Cancer patients require self-management ability or skill to manage their pain symptoms and daily cares and eventually enhance quality of life. Auricular acupressure therapy may be one of promising adjunct therapies because AA studies have reported that AA improves in empowering self-management and decreasing pain severity.
