Nurse Counseling for Physical Activity in Patients Undergoing Esophagectomy

Strong evidence exists regarding multiple benefits of physical activity among cancer patients. Patients undergoing esophagectomy received counseling for physical activity by a nurse and instructions to keep a diary of physical activities before surgery, followed by 2 counseling sessions after surgery. Physical activity, body mass index, psychological distress, and quality of life were measured at baseline, 2–4 weeks, and 3 and 6 months after discharge. Of 29 participants (mean age = 65.9 years), 72.5% underwent thoracoscopic esophagectomy in the prone position with 3-field lymphadectomy. The results of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire indicated that postoperative physical activity returned to nearly preoperative level, and the number of inactive patients gradually decreased by half at 6 months after discharge. Quality of life scores, except those for role function and social function, tended to return to the baseline at 6 months after discharge. Psychological distress measured by the Kessler 6 remained lower than the baseline, whereas the mean score of body mass index gradually declined after discharge. Patients undergoing esophagectomy and receiving nurse counseling can return to preoperative physical activity level in their daily lives after surgery. Nurses should integrate physical activity promotion into cancer care.This is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives License 4.0 (CCBY-NC-ND), where it is permissible to download and share the work provided it is properly cited.

[Purpose] The purpose of the study was to assess whether physical activity (PA) is associated with health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in adult survivors of aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). [Subjects and Methods] This study included 100 outpatients with NHL (median age 65.0 years; 6 months to 8 years after diagnosis) at an urban university hospital. Multiple regression analysis was performed to assess the association between PA and HRQOL obtained via a self-administered questionnaire. [Results] HRQOL was positively associated with PA, but not with mental health. [Conclusion] The results suggest that PA may enhance HRQOL of adult survivors of NHL.

Are we ready for personalized cancer risk management? The view from breast-care providers

Komatsu Hiroko, Yagasaki Kaori

International Journal of Nursing Practice 20 ( 1 ) 39 - 45 2014.02

ISSN 1322-7114

Personalized medicine, the tailoring of prevention and treatment, is the future of routine clinical practice. This approach has started to appear in genetic testing for predisposition to hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). We explored how breast-care providers perceived HBOC risk management, using grounded theory. This study found that the frontline healthcare providers perceived HBOC risk management as still being neglected in breast cancer care. Emerging challenges included treatment priority, hesitancy to deal with sensitive issues, easily missed risks, genetic data not being shared among multidisciplinary professionals, and patients being lost to follow-up. Oncology nurses are ideally placed to facilitate communication and utilization of genetic information among multidisciplinary professionals. Specialized outpatient clinics need to be established to follow up individuals at high risk. There is a need to create a system to meet the future demands of personalized medicine in nursing practice. © 2013 Wiley Publishing Asia Pty Ltd.
