Cancer Prevention02:59

Cancer Prevention

7.6K
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

630
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...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

2.8K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Nursing Ethical Principles II

2.0K
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...

Cancer Therapies

9.8K
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...

Techniques of therapeutic communication I: Active Listening, Sharing Observations, Validation, and Using Touch

7.2K
The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Area of Science:

  • Health Communication
  • Behavioral Science
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Patient-centered communication (PCC) is crucial for health outcomes.
  • Its role in preventing risky health behaviors is understudied.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine associations between PCC and health-risk behaviors.
  • Focus on U.S. adults with and without a cancer history.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized 2020 Health Information National Trends Survey data.
  • Included 2529 U.S. adults (≥18 years), with 421 cancer survivors.
  • Employed descriptive statistics and multivariable logistic regression.

Main Results:

  • 13.2% reported cigarette use, 6.1% e-cigarette use, 31.4% excessive alcohol use.
  • Better PCC correlated with lower odds of ≥1 risk behavior in cancer survivors (AOR=0.97).
  • Among non-cancer adults, older age, higher education, and insurance were linked to fewer risk behaviors.

Conclusions:

  • PCC shows significant associations with health-risk behaviors in cancer survivors.
  • Promoting PCC among healthcare providers is essential for better patient outcomes.
  • Responsive PCC can be a strategy to prevent risky health behaviors.
