Zusammenfassung

Kranke Menschen leiden oft an einer Vielzahl körperlicher und psychischer Beschwerden, die bereits in den Kapiteln 1 und 3 besprochen wurden. Die Erfassung des Leidens ist insofern eine Herausforderung, als die Beschwerden von den Behandlern in der Regel unterschätzt werden, und zwar sowohl bezüglich ihrer Anzahl als auch ihrer Intensität. Da Leiden subjektiv ist, kann es also nicht einfach angenommen, sondern muss erfragt werden. Hinzu kommt, dass die Patienten ihre Beschwerden oft nicht aktiv äußern, weil sie diese als zur Krankheit oder Therapie gehörig erachten, nicht zur Last fallen wollen oder glauben, die Behandler hätten keine Zeit. Leichter ersichtliche Beschwerden wie Schmerzen oder Erbrechen werden vielleicht noch erkannt und erfasst, doch weniger offensichtliche Symptome wie Schwäche oder eine chronische Übelkeit werden im klinischen Alltag leider oft übersehen. Auch gibt es Zeichen von Krankheit wie etwa Gewichtsverlust, die beim ersten Auftreten gar nicht als solche oder als Belastung wahrgenommen werden.
