Abstract
Patients with head and neck cancer experience significant treatment-related symptoms. Aging may predispose older patients to greater risk. We examined the association of age with symptom burden. Older patients may experience more symptom burden with swallowing, voice/speech, and nutrition. Nurses need to be especially aware of and monitor for these problems.
摘要
头颈癌患者会经历与治疗相关的显著症状。衰老可能使老年患者面临更大风险。我们研究了年龄与症状负担之间的关联。老年患者在吞咽、声音/言语和营养方面可能会承受更多的症状负担。护士需要特别留意并监测这些问题。
