Cancer Survivorship in the Adult: An Annotated Bibliography
نویسنده
چکیده
This annotated bibliography was developed to complement and extend the material on cancer survivorship presented in the State of the Science on Nursing Approaches to Managing Late and Long-Term Sequelae of Cancer and Cancer Treatment, and to provide readers seeking additional information with selected topics in cancer survivorship. The citations were identified through computerized searches of CINAHL and MEDLINE encompassing the period from January 2000 through June 2005, using the following search terms: “cancer” in combination with “survivorship,” “survivors,” or “late effects of treatment.” In CINAHL, these search strategies resulted in 627 citations, and in MEDLINE they produced 1,788 citations. The abstracts of these citations were reviewed, and articles reporting survivorship issues in adolescents and adults were included. Papers excluded from this bibliography included: articles focused on survivorship issues following childhood cancer treatment; unpublished dissertations, theses, and reports; and papers addressing specific topics already covered in this issue (for example, osteoporosis in cancer survivors, fatigue, and family and psychosocial issues). The remaining citations were grouped thematically and briefly annotated. The most recent or most comprehensive reviews, and reports thought to offer a unique perspective were retained.
