Lung Cancer: The Nursing Challenge for the Next Millennium.

syndromes can occur with lung cancer. Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH), Cushing’s syndrome, hypercalcemia, periostial proliferation, and superior vena cava syndrome (SVCS) are complications for which nurses must assess and educate patients and families to prevent further sequelae and to help maintain an optimal quality of life. Symptom management is an important component in helping lung cancer patients deal with their illness and treatment. Nurses must assess, educate, and assist patients in coping with psychosocial issues and problem symptoms such as cough, pain, dyspnea, hemopytosis, and wheezing. The major challenge of lung cancer for nurses is in the area of prevention and cessation education. Nurses must be aware of the physiologic, political, and cost issues associated with smoking and lung cancer so that they can become active professional, public, and patient educators in the fight against cancer.
