Abstract
Background: Despite advances in antiemetic regimens, uncontrolled chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains a problem for patients receiving oncology treatment, leading to decreased quality of life and worse treatment outcomes.
Objectives: The purpose of this pilot project was to use follow-up telephone calls to identify barriers related to successful management and prevention of CINV on a single-center outpatient chemotherapy infusion unit.
Methods: A mixed-methods descriptive design was used for this project. Quantitative data were used to assess barriers to management and prevention of CINV. Secondary multiple regression analysis was used to determine whether barriers could predict CINV. Qualitative data were used to analyze common barriers and themes.
Findings: Of the patients called (N = 132), 50% identified a barrier to managing and treating CINV, with the most common barrier being knowledge gaps related to proper use of antiemetics.
期刊介绍：
The Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing (CJON) is an official publication of the Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) and is directed to the practicing nurse specializing in the care of patients with an actual or potential diagnosis of cancer. CJON is a vehicle to promote the mission of ONS, which is to advance excellence in oncology nursing and quality cancer care. The CJON mission is twofold: to provide practical information necessary to care for patients and their families across the cancer continuum and to develop publication skills in oncology nurses.
