Few guidelines offer recommendations on how to assess and manage anxiety and distress in children with cancer: a content analysis.

We identified no guidelines that were specific to clinical assessment or management of anxiety and distress among children and adolescents undergoing cancer treatment or HSCT, and thus, clinicians lack evidence-informed guidance on how to manage these specific symptoms. Future research should establish high-quality guidelines that offer recommendations specific to clinical assessment and management of anxiety and distress in pediatric oncology and HSCT.
