Articles of Interest

This month, our members have contributed to a wide range of important topics in cancer care. Recent publications explore the management of immunotherapy side effects, models of care coordination for brain tumour patients, and the nurse’s role in transitioning patients from curative to palliative care. Other articles examine preferences for telephone-based cancer support, trauma-informed approaches to procedural care, patient education needs, and survivorship care for BMT and younger women. Additional research looks at pain management strategies and the adequacy of imaging reports in pancreatic cancer staging.
