Seminars in Oncology Nursing
|October 3, 2018
Summary
Oncology nurses can contribute valuable expertise to book publishing, enhancing nursing knowledge. This guide offers resources for authoring and revising book chapters, including new opportunities in self-publishing and electronic formats.
Area of Science:
- Nursing
- Medical Education
- Scholarly Publishing
Background:
- Textbooks serve as crucial resources for nursing students and clinicians.
- Oncology nurses possess significant expertise to contribute to published nursing knowledge.
- Existing resources for nurses on book authorship are limited.
Purpose of the Study:
- To outline the book publishing process for oncology nurses.
- To provide resources and opportunities for nurses interested in book publishing.
- To address unique aspects of book publishing, including revisions and new formats.
Main Methods:
- Literature review of journal articles and publisher guidelines.
- Exploration of online publishing resources.
- Consultations with textbook editors and personal experience.
Main Results:
- A gap exists in published guidance for nurses authoring/revising books.
- Book publishing offers opportunities such as self-publishing and electronic textbooks.
- Considerations include authorship of future editions.
Conclusions:
- Oncology nurses are well-positioned to author and revise book chapters.
- Disseminating expertise through book publishing can improve cancer care.
- Guidance and resources are needed to support nurses in scholarly writing.

49.2K
Most plants use the C3 pathway for carbon fixation. However, some plants, such as sugar cane, corn, and cacti that grow in hot conditions, use alternative pathways to fix carbon and conserve energy loss due to photorespiration. Photorespiration is the process that occurs when the oxygen concentration is high. Under such conditions, the rubisco enzyme in the Calvin cycle binds O2 instead of CO2, which halts photosynthesis and consumes energy.

3.9K
Nursing interventions are chosen as part of the planning process to achieve patient outcomes. Once nursing diagnoses are determined, the goals and outcomes are specified, then the nursing interventions are selected and individualized according to the patient's situation.
A nursing intervention is a treatment or action based on scientific concepts and knowledge from the nursing, behavioral, and physical sciences. Identifying and prioritizing nursing interventions based on the desired outcome...

01:29Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions
3.3K
Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:

The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) operates in parallel with glycolysis, facilitating the metabolism of both pentoses and glucose. This pathway consists of two distinct phases: the oxidative and non-oxidative phases. While it does not directly generate ATP, the intermediates formed during the process can integrate into glycolysis, contributing to cellular energy metabolism when required.Oxidative Phase: NADPH ProductionThe oxidative phase of the pentose phosphate pathway is primarily...

01:15Nursing Evaluation
4.4K
The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.
