This comprehensive handbook is for nurses and other healthcare
professionals involved in the care of people with breast cancer. It
gives up-to-date evidence-based information and practical advice on
nursing care throughout diagnosis, treatment, recovery and
end-of-life care.
Each chapter is written by an expert in the field. Topics
include the anatomy of the breast, available treatments,
complementary therapies, the psychological care of patients and
their families, and the role of the specialist nurse. This book
provides a well-balanced approach to all aspects of managing breast
malignancy. The importance of writing from a nursing perspective is
underlined so that the essence of support and bedside care is
maintained.
This second edition includes:
- Updates on guidelines as well as references to recent trials
and changes to the breast screening programme - A new chapter on survivorship issues covering the long-term
consequences and effects of recovering from breast cancer
