Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose: This study was done to provide oncology nurses systemic guidelines designed to perform telephone
counseling in outpatient settings treating patients with chemotherapy.
Methods: Symptoms which are frequently questioned were identified through case reports recorded by 4 clinical nurse specialists from January 4 to December 31. 2010. Fifteen clinical experts and two hemato-oncologists reviewed the developed draft. Their opinions were synthesized to arrive at consensus on the ideal guidelines. This process confirmed content validity. The two hemato-oncologists also verified the face validity.
Results: The six symptoms which were most frequently asked about were identified through 4,644 case reports and concerned pain, fever, skin alteration, nausea/vomiting, stomatitis and diarrhea. Evidence-based telephone triage guidelines for the 6 major symptoms in patients receiving chemotherapy were developed.
Conclusion: These guidelines will help oncology nurses from novice to expert incorporate evidence-based telenursing into their practice.
