Abstract

|
|
Purpose: In this study, the articles which developed and applied nursing interventions for patients with cancer were reviewed and analyzed.
Methods: The analysis was performed in light of 171 pieces of literature on nursing interventions for patients with cancer published between 1991 and 2010.
Results: Approximately half of the studies have been published between 2006 and 2010. The quasiexperimental designs using nonequivalent control group and no-synchronized design were the most common form of research design among the 71 papers constituting 41.52% of the total. The most commonly used nursing intervention was education (25.2%), followed by massage (20.4%) and exercise (11.5%). The most common outcome variable was anxiety (11.8%), followed by pain (8.0%) and nausea and vomiting (7.3%).
Conclusion: The results of this study can provide useful information for the development of nursing interventions in specialized areas. Systematic literature review or meta-analysis is needed in this area.
