4 ways to view lung cancer assessment without hesitation in practical training
When taking care of a patient with lung cancer, it is easy to stop at "What should I look from?."
In practice, it is easier to organize if you have a perspective that prioritizes and aligns rather than looking at everything at once.
1. Breathing condition
Cough, phlegm, bloody phlegm, dyspnea, SpO2, and breathing sounds should be checked first. Airway stenosis, pleural effusion, and atelectasis are points that are easy to get worse.
2. Impact of Treatment
After surgery, attention should be paid to anaerobic lung and pneumonia, bone marrow suppression during drug therapy, and pulmonary disorders and general malaise with molecular targeted drugs and immunotherapy.
3. Signs of seriousness
It is important to suspect that edema of the face and upper limbs is superior vena cava syndrome, headaches and cramps are brain metastases, and hyponaemia and changes in consciousness are tumor-associated syndrome.
4. Impact on Life
Anxiety, work, family role, and hospital visit burden make it easier to write nursing problems.
