Lung Cancer: A Multidisciplinary Approach is an essential resource for all nurses and healthcare professionals working with cancer patients.
Lung cancer is the most lethal of all cancers worldwide, responsible for 1.2 million deaths annually. This book will provide clinicians with a comprehensive text that can be used when caring for patients with lung cancer throughout the entire patient journey. Lung cancer care varies a great deal from surgery with curative intent to palliative care. The impact on individuals and family members reflects the various patient trajectories, which mean that the clinician caring for the person with lung cancer will need a flexible approach. As the presentation, care and context of lung cancer embodies so much variation, lung cancer care is by necessity a multidisciplinary activity. This book is written as an expression of this multidisciplinary ethos.
