PREECHA NOOTIM : DEVELOPMENT OF PALLIATIVE CARE MODEL USING THAI TRADITIONAL MEDICINE FOR TREATMENT OF END- STAGE LIVER CANCER PATIENTS IN THAI TRADITIONAL MEDICINE HOSPITALS THESIS ADVISOR : ASSISTANT PROFESSOR NATTIYA KAPOL, Ph.D. Current cancer modern medical treatment in mainly a treatment for inhibition of hepatocellular carcinoma proliferation in different stage, however, liver cancer is the still most diseases with high incidence and mortality rate. Moreover, modern medical treatment has several side effects. Thai traditional medicine is an alternative for the treatment of end-stage liver cancer patients. This research aimed to develop a palliative care model using Thai Traditional Medicine (TTM) for treatment of end-stage liver cancer patients in TTM Hospitals. Five TTM hospitals implemented the model comprised of 1) Thai Traditional and Integrated Medical hospital 2) Uthong hospital 3) Wattana Nakhon hospital 4)Khun Han hospital and 5)Sawang Daen Din Crown Prince Hospital. The methods were conducted in 3 phases including 1) the study of situations, problems, and obstacles in the care of end-stage liver cancer patients in TTM hospitals, 2) the development of the model of palliative care for end-stage liver cancer patients with TTM, and 3) the implementation and assessment of the possibility of using a palliative treatment model for liver cancer patients with TTM at TTM hospitals. The results showed that the palliative care model for end-stage liver cancer patients composed of 1) the roles of healthcare professional team 2) treatment of end-stage liver cancer patients guidelines 3) holistic care guidelines, and 4) guidelines for referral system and home visit. The model was applied to TTM hospitals with 3 different platforms, which were stand alone, paralleled and integrated services. After the implementation, the evaluations were conducted in 3 groups of participants; healthcare team, patients and caregivers. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation and compare the evaluation score between before and after implementation with paired t-test statistics. Regarding possibility evaluation, all health care providers agreed that the palliative care model using TTM for treatment of end-stage liver cancer patients was possible at a high level for implementation. The satisfaction of health care team and the patients’ symptom were significantly changed after the implementation. Clinical outcomes in physical and mental aspects of patients were improved significantly (p<0.05). Patients and their caregivers’ satisfaction toward palliative care services were at highest level (M=4.38;SD=0.46) and (M=4.22;SD=0.38); respectively. In conclusion, the developed palliative care model using TTM for treatment of end-stage liver cancer patients can be implemented in the TTM Hospitals. The TTM model should be adjusted according to resources and policy of each hospital. However, outcome evaluation for testing the effectiveness of the model in the long term is highly recommended for further study.

National notifiable diseases surveillance system (NNDSS) data in developing countries are usually incomplete, yet the total number of fatal cases reported is commonly used in national priority-setting. Melioidosis, an infectious disease caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei, is largely underrecognized by policy-makers due to the underreporting of fatal cases via the NNDSS. Methods. Collaborating with the Epidemiology Division (ED), Ministry of Public Health (MoPH), we conducted a retrospec- tive study to determine the incidence and mortality of melioidosis cases already identified by clinical microbiology laboratories nationwide. A case of melioidosis was defined as a patient with any clinical specimen culture positive for B.

  • Regional Development of the Golden and Emerald Triangle Areas: Thai Perspective
    CHAPTER 6 Regional Development of the Golden and Emerald Triangle Areas: Thai Perspective Nucharee Supatn This chapter should be cited as: Supatn, Nucharee, 2012. “Regional Development of the Golden and Emerald Triangle Areas: Thai Perspective.” In Five Triangle Areas in The Greater Mekong Subregion, edited by Masami Ishida, BRC Research Report No.11, Bangkok Research Center, IDE- JETRO, Bangkok, Thailand. CHAPTER 6 REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE GOLDEN AND EMERALD TRIANGLE AREAS: THAI PERSPECTIVES Nucharee Supatn INTRODUCTION Regarding international cooperation in the Greater Mekong Sub-region, two triangle areas of the three bordering countries also exist in Thailand. The first is known as the “Golden Triangle” of Myanmar, Lao PDR, and Thailand. It was known as the land of opium and the drug trade in a previous era. The second, the “Emerald Triangle,” includes areas of Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Thailand. In addition, there is also the “Quadrangle Area” of China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Thailand which is an extension of the Golden Triangle. Though there is no border between China and Thailand, there is cooperation in trading, drug and criminal control, and also the development of regional infrastructure, especially in the North-South Economic Corridor (NSEC) and the 4th Thai-Laos Friendship Bridge which is currently under construction. Figure 1 shows the location of the two triangles. The circled area indicates the Golden Triangle, which is located in the upper-north of Thailand, whereas the Emerald Triangle is in the northeastern region of the country. However, as these two triangles are located in different regions of Thailand with different characteristics and contexts, the discussions of each region are presented separately.

  • Implications of Border Trade Between Thailand and Cambodia
    doi: 10.14456/jms.2017.4 The Truck Terminal Project in Sa Kaeo Province: Implications of Border Trade between Thailand and Cambodia Jirawat Jaroensathapornkul School of Economics and Public Policy Srinakharinwirot University, Bangkok, Thailand E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Thailand has recently put in place a logistics development plan for a network of road transport. Included among several projects is one for setting up truck terminals in border cities to act as centers for the pooling and distribution of goods. Sa Kaeo is considered a promising border city. This study investigates the impacts of a truck terminal project in Sa Kaeo province on border trade between Thailand and Cambodia using secondary data and in-depth interviews that are analyzed under the SWOT Matrix. The analytical results have led to several recommendations, as follows: The Thai government should complete the project at Ban Nong Ian as soon as possible by including it in the formation of a special economic zone in the province. The reason is that Aranyaprathet Customs House, the existing check point, is no longer able to serve the major increase in border trade. However, there are certain concerns about an insufficient distribution of benefits to the general public in the province. It is therefore suggested that investment in the animal feed industry should be promoted in Sa Kaeo for export to Cambodia.
