Prevention and early detection of cancer in women
1Deaconess Cancer Screening Center, St. Louis, MO 63139, USA.
Abstract:
Cancer remains a significant problem for women. When detected early, cancer is more easily treated and the possibility of long-term cure is greatest. Nurses play an important role in the prevention and early detection of cancer in women. Nurses can serve as role models to women by incorporating cancer prevention and detection practices into their personal health behaviors. Nurses also have many opportunities to incorporate primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention methods into their practice, regardless of the setting. The impact on quality of life and decreased mortality as a result of implementation of prevention and early detection practices is significant.
