Nursing Ethical Principles II01:27

Nursing Ethical Principles II

1.4K
Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.
Initially, Mr. John's...

Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

1.6K
Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Ethical Issues

1.2K
Nurses are essential in patient care, upholding the ethical principles of their profession and effectively navigating ethical dilemmas. Neglecting ethical issues can lead to inadequate patient care, compromised therapeutic relationships, and moral distress among healthcare workers.

Cancer Therapies02:49

Cancer Therapies

8.0K
Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

472
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Treatment Resistant Cancers02:56

Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.4K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Palliative Care
  • Pediatrics

Background:

  • Approximately 4 million children globally have cancer and require pediatric palliative care (PPC).
  • PPC is a holistic approach, not solely end-of-life care, applicable throughout a child's cancer trajectory.
  • PPC can be provided irrespective of ongoing oncological treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the importance of integrating PPC in pediatric oncology.
  • To outline the fundamental principles and applications of PPC in childhood cancer care.
  • To discuss models for implementing PPC, including end-of-life care and advanced care planning.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on pediatric palliative care in oncology.
  • Synthesis of principles and applications of PPC.
  • Analysis of implementation models for PPC in pediatric cancer settings.

Main Results:

  • PPC offers comprehensive support across the continuum of pediatric cancer care.
  • Integration of PPC principles enhances the management of children with cancer.
  • Various models exist for delivering PPC within oncology settings.

Conclusions:

  • Integrating PPC is crucial for improving the quality of life for children with cancer.
  • PPC models support advanced care planning and end-of-life care in pediatric oncology.
  • A multidisciplinary approach to PPC is vital in pediatric cancer management.
