Reason for withdrawal from publication
This review is now out of date although it is correct as of the date of publication [Issue 2, 2008]. The authors are developing a new protocol which will replace this review. Publication of the protocol is expected in 2014, and serves to update the existing review and incorporate the latest evidence into a new Cochrane Review. The latest version of this review (available in 'Other versions' tab on The Cochrane Library) may still be useful to readers until the new review is published.
In 2016, the replacement review titled 'Non‐pharmacological interventions for breathlessness in advanced stages of malignant and non‐malignant diseases' was deregistered and split into four separate reviews of individual interventions: Respiratory interventions for breathlessness in adults with advanced diseases; Physical interventions for breathlessness in adults with advanced diseases; Cognitive‐emotional interventions for breathlessness in adults with advanced diseases; Multi‐dimensional interventions for breathlessness in adults with advanced diseases.
At September 2020, these replacement titles were deregistered (Multi‐dimensional interventions) or the protocols withdrawn (Cognitive‐emotional interventions; Multi‐dimensional interventions; Respiratory interventions) as they did not meet Cochrane standards or expectations.
The editorial group responsible for this previously published document have withdrawn it from publication.
