摘要
Expanding the evidence base of cancer in the elderly is critical to advance the specialty of geriatric oncology nursing. This article will propose topics for nursing investigation relative to prevention and early detection, response to disease and treatment, and psychosocial responses in the elderly at risk for, or having cancer. International considerations for undertaking nursing research with this special population are also described. Current dilemmas requiring investigation and future demographic implications are highlighted. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
