Abstract

Fatigue in the Elderly with CancerIn the world, old age and older cancer tend to increase. Fatigue is more common in older cancer patients than other age groups due to many factors. It is very important to eliminate fatigue by pharmacological-non-pharmacologic methods and to evaluate the fatigue of the nurses who spend the most time with the elderly cancer patients in the clinic. In elderly cancer patients, the number of articles about fatigue is insufficient. This article is intended to be a guide to nurses working on this field.

Özet

ÖzDünyada, yaşlılık ve yaşlı kanser olgusu artma eğilimindedir. Yaşlı kanser hastalarında, birçok nedene bağlı olarak yorgunluk, diğer yaş guruplarından daha fazla görülmektedir. Klinikte yaşlı kanser hastaları ile en fazla zaman geçiren hemşirelerin yorgunluğu değerlendirmeleri ve farmakolojik-non farmakolojik yöntemlerle yorgunluğun azaltılması ya da giderilmesi çok önemlidir. Yaşlı kanser hastalarında yorgunluk ile ilgili makale sayısı yetersiz düzeydedir. Bu makalenin, bu alanda çalışan hemşirelere yol gösterici olması hedeflenmiştir.
