When cured, many cancer survivors are left with unmet needs and intimate symptoms, which are often too embarrassing and shameful to disclose, and unfortunately seldom requested by health-care professionals. The aim of this study is to describe the development of a model that manages late effects among female pelvic cancer survivors in a nurse-led care setting. MethodsA model for managing late effects in female cancer survivors was developed, and a nurse-led care clinic was established that offers education, medical management, dietary and sexual counselling, as well as self-management and life-style interventions in accordance to evidenced based research. Women who received pelvic radiotherapy, starting in 2007, were identified, and baseline data was collected by means of a self-reported questionnaire. The questionnaire also served as an inventory of health status and as a foundation to individualize the intervention prior to the visit. ResultsTo date more than 900 baseline-questionnaires have been collected. The analysis of both baseline and evaluation data is ongoing. ConclusionsThe study outlined in this protocol present a holistic and person-centered health care approach that supports pelvic cancer survivors in managing late radiotherapy-induced effects. In contrast with previous research, our wide range of questions prior to the visit gives rich insights to the survivorsu2019 present physical status, especially concerning private issues such as sexual health and incontinence of feces. The unique dataset will contribute to future development of evidence-based management strategies in pelvic cancer rehabilitation.

Download or read book Late Effects of Childhood Cancer written by Daniel Green and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2003-12-26 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The treatment of childhood cancer has become increasingly successful over the last forty years, and during the last two decades in particular, and the overall cure rate is now 60-70%. This, in turn, has introduced new issues for the clinician as the number of long-term survivors has increased. Some of the therapies that have contributed most to the improvement in survival are now known to have serious consequences for the patient in later life, and many survivors will be affected by physical, educational and psychological disability to a lesser or greater degree. This definitive reference brings together all aspects of long-term effects of treatment for cancer during childhood in a single comprehensive volume. International in perspective, the book is structured according to complication rather than original site of malignancy for ease of reference. Topics covered include problems in the neurological system and special senses of sight and sound, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, urological and musculoskeletal complications, effects on the endocrine system and, in particular, future fertility, and secondary cancers. The book also reviews in detail the important issues of quality of life, prevention initiatives and strategies for long-term follow up. Key point summaries are included throughout, and the references are annotated to guide the reader quickly to seminal primary papers and key review articles. With an accessible and consistent approach throughout, Late Effects of Childhood Cancer is an invaluable source of information and guidance for pediatric oncologists, who need to keep fully informed in order to advise patients and their parents appropriately, and also for pediatric and adult endocrinologists, adult oncologists and other physicians to whom the patient with late effects may initially present.

The consistent and concise format provides just the right amount of information, making Clinical Radiation Oncology a welcome resource for use by the entire radiation oncology team. Content is templated and divided into three sections -- Scientific Foundations of Radiation Oncology, Techniques and Modalities, and Disease Sites - for quick access to information. Disease Sites chapters summarize the most important issues on the opening page and include a full-color format, liberal use of tables and figures, a closing section with a discussion of controversies and problems, and a treatment algorithm that reflects the treatment approach of the authors. Chapters have been edited for scientific accuracy, organization, format, and adequacy of outcome data (such as disease control, survival, and treatment tolerance). Allows you to examine the therapeutic management of specific disease sites based on single-modality and combined-modality approaches. Features an emphasis on providing workup and treatment algorithms for each major disease process, as well as the coverage of molecular biology and its relevance to individual diseases. Two new chapters provide an increased emphasis on stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body irradiation (SBRT). New Associate Editor, Dr. Andrea Ng, offers her unique perspectives to the Lymphoma and Hematologic Malignancies section. Key Points are summarized at the beginning of each disease-site chapter, mirroring the template headings and highlighting essential information and outcomes. Treatment algorithms and techniques, together with discussions of controversies and problems, reflect the treatment approaches employed by the authors. Disease Site Overviews allow each section editor to give a unique perspective on important issues, while online updates to Disease Site chapters ensure your knowledge is current. Disease Site chapters feature updated information on disease management and outcomes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The average physician and even cancer care-givers are not knowledgeable about the effects of cancer treatment on sex and reproductive life. They are even less aware of the options available for treatment of such patients. Cancer and Sexual Health fills a great need for a reference work devoted to the link between cancer and human sexuality. The volume is designed to give a comprehensive and state-of-the-art review of the sexual and reproductive consequences of cancer diagnosis and treatment. It will prove an invaluable resource for those clinicians caring for cancer patients as well as acting as a reference text for the sexual medicine clinician who may not see a large number of cancer patients.
