Abstract

For hot flashes, standards of care are based on established evidence-based practice. Hot flashes are a sensation of heat that can be accompanied by facial flushing, perspiration, chills, heart palpitations, night sweats, and anxiety. Hot flashes occur in 51%-82% or women treated for breast cancer and 80% of men treated for prostate cancer with surgical or chemical castration.
