Description:
As the likely first responder in an emergency, you need quick access to
essential information on the potential complications of many different
cancer types and treatments. The new edition of this trusted resource
provides up-to-date information on the pathophysiology, complications,
risks, treatment approaches, prognosis, assessment findings, and
nursing and medical interventions for a wide range of cancers. It also
offers valuable information to help you fulfill your role as care
coordinator and patient advocate, including client education
guidelines, discharge procedures, and strategies for helping the client
and family deal with the impact of the disease’s progression.
Key Features:
A consistent format throughout helps you quickly find the information you need, no matter what the topic. This
indispensable reference is written and reviewed by both oncology and
acute care nurses, ensuring accuracy, currency, and clinical relevance. Coverage
of each cancer includes pathophysiologic mechanisms, epidemiology and
etiology, risk profile, prognosis, professional assessment criteria
(PAC), nursing care and treatment, evidence-based practice update,
patient teaching, nursing diagnoses or DSM-IV, evaluation and desired
outcomes, and discharge planning with follow-up care, where needed. The
latest prognosis statistics give you a realistic picture of the
survival possibilities for your patients so you can provide the most
appropriate nursing care and patient education. Multiple-choice
review questions with answers and rationales at the end of each chapter
help reinforce your understanding of key concepts and prepare you for
certification examinations. Special boxes highlight pediatric-specific care considerations for working with children.
