Lifestyle recommendations and outpatient management of children and teenagers with cancer in Europe
Dear colleague,

We are writing to you from the Support Working Group from the Spanish Haematology and Oncology Society.

We would kindly ask you to answer these questions regarding outpatient management and what are/not allowed to do/go children with cancer during treatment.

These are general questions which refer to stable, without active infection or acute complications patients.

We would very much appreciate, if possible, a representative answer or different answers from all the areas: Malignant Haematology, CNS tumours, non-CNS solid tumours and Bone Marrow Transplant.

Thank you very much for your help.
