Comments: | Comorbidities may influence treatment decisions and patient outcomes; they may be used to adjust outcome statistics when evaluating patient survival and other outcomes. Comorbidities are generally used with cancer patients to refer to conditions not related to the cancer, and in epidemiology to indicate the coexistence of two or more disease processes. The presence of comorbidities in a patient may affect treatment decisions and be an important prognostic determinant. For example, they may be used to adjust outcome statistics when evaluating patient survival and other outcomes. |
