Description
Pocket Guide to Breast Cancer is an easy-to-use, day-to-day reference for nurses caring for patients with breast cancer and their families. The Pocket Guide is divided into four parts: Epidemiology of Breast Cancer, Treatment of Primary Breast Cancer, Treatment of Recurrent Breast Cancer, and Quality-of-Life Issues. Each chapter has been expanded and updated to provide the reader with current information, and the Third Edition features two new chapters on Endocrine Therapy and End-of-Life Issues. Like the previous editions, this handy pocket guide includes information on screening and early detection, assessment, treatment, surgical techniques, and cancer-related fatigue and sleep disturbance.
