PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES: To review the pathophysiology of oral complications from cancer therapy and potential secondary complications.
Published articles, books, and monographs.
Cancer, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy disturb the normal integrity and function of the oral cavity. This leads to ulcerations, bone changes, bleeding, infection, salivary gland dysfunction, and dental diseases. Secondary complications occur as consequences of existing oral complications and often result in life-threatening situations.
Coordinating the efforts of nursing, medicine, and dentistry is critical to the prevention, management, and resolution of oral complications. Continued research is needed.
Understanding the pathophysiology of oral complications from cancer therapy enables nurses to identify significant changes and implement appropriate measures to prevent complications. By identifying patients who are at risk for developing secondary complications, nurses can provide detailed instructions to these patients and their significant others to aide them in reporting changes that require prompt medical attention.
目的/目标：回顾癌症治疗引起的口腔并发症的病理生理学及潜在的继发并发症。
已发表的文章、书籍和专著。
癌症、化疗和放疗会扰乱口腔的正常完整性和功能。这会导致溃疡、骨质改变、出血、感染、唾液腺功能障碍和牙科疾病。继发并发症是现有口腔并发症的后果，常导致危及生命的情况。
协调护理、医学和牙科的工作对于预防、管理和解决口腔并发症至关重要。需要持续进行研究。
了解癌症治疗引起的口腔并发症的病理生理学，使护士能够识别显著变化并采取适当措施预防并发症。通过识别有发生继发并发症风险的患者，护士可以向这些患者及其重要他人提供详细指导，以帮助他们报告需要及时就医的变化。
