It’s more than just physical: Experiences of pain and pain management among Māori with cancer and their whānau.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study investigated the experiences of pain and pain management among Māori with cancer in Aotearoa New Zealand. Using a qualitative study design underpinned by kaupapa Māori research principles, focus group hui and interviews were held with Māori with cancer and their whānau (n=24). We identified themes relating to holistic experiences of pain and pain management, the importance of appropriate support and good communication, and intertwined cancer and pain journeys that impact holistically on Māori with cancer and their whānau. We argue that Aotearoa’s health care system must expand the scope of what pain and pain management means in the context of cancer and act accordingly by adequately supporting Te Ao Māori-centred approaches. The health care system must also heed the call for culturally responsive pain management for Māori, which is especially important when caring for whānau with a disease where pain - both physical and non-physical - is a common and significant symptom.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
