Care Nursing in Immune Disorder Assessment among Adult Oncology Patients: A Scoping Review.
Endocrine, Metabolic & Immune Disorders Drug Targets 2024 August 1
BACKGROUND: International guidelines recommend a pathway for preferable nursing handling in a specific cancer topic, like chemotherapy toxicity, low adhesion in toxicity reported with a consequential increase in adverse events (AEs) frequency, poorer QoL outcomes, and increased use of healthcare service until death. Unpredictability, postponed reports, and incapability to access healthcare services can compromise toxicity-related effects by including patients' safety. In this scenario, a more attentive nursing intervention can improve patients' outcomes and decrease costs for healthcare services, respectively. The present scoping review aims to describe and synthesize scientific care nursing evidence assessment in oncology patients.
METHODS: PubMed, Embase, Nursing & Allied Health Database, and British Nursing were the databases examined. Keywords used and associated with Boolean operators were assessment, care, nursing, immune disorder, oncology, and patient. Research articles considered were published between 2013-2023. All systematic processes were performed according to the PRISMA procedure in order to reach all manuscripts considered in the present scoping review.
RESULTS: The Embase database showed a total of 25 articles, PubMed displayed 77, the Nursing & Allied Health Database evidenced a total of 74, and the British Nursing database showed 252 records. Then, after a first revision in each database by considering the inclusion criteria, the abovementioned titles and abstracts were selected and, 336 records were removed, and 92 studies remained. Of these, 65 manuscripts were excluded after verifying abstracts. Finally, a total of 7 articles were carefully analysed and selected for this scoping review. Specifically, 2 articles belonged to the British Nursing Database, 3 articles belonged to Embase, 1 to the Nursing & Allied Health Database and one related to PubMed.
CONCLUSION: Oncology nursing should consider several aspects, such as therapy-related toxicity and its related morbidity and mortality, worsening levels of quality of life, and increasing duty by the healthcare organization or endorsements for the principal symptoms and signs which may anticipate few diseases and worst clinical conditions, too. Therefore, careful monitoring may allow prompt recognition and subsequent earlier management in the treatment efficacy.
