The purpose of the study was to determine oncology nursing research priorities among Canadian oncology nurses. The following two groups of nurses were mailed survey questionnaires: oncology nurse researchers and nurses working in oncology clinical settings who were members of the Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology (CANO). The questionnaire was based on prior Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) research surveys and the oncology nursing literature. It instructed participants to rank from a list of topics, the five they perceived as research priorities. The response rate was 31% (249/810) for CANO members and 41% (32/78) for nurse researchers. The top five research priorities for CANO members were communication, symptom management, quality of life, pain control/management, and standards of practice. The top five research priorities for nurse researchers were pain control/management, family issues, patient participation in decision making, symptom management, and communication. Many of the same topics appeared in the priority lists of both the CANO members and the nurse researchers. However, the rank ordering of topics was not identical. The lists of CANO members contained both clinical and professional issues, whereas the researchers' lists focused primarily on clinical issues. The findings provide the basis for developing a Canadian national oncology nursing research agenda. In addition, the findings provide direction for practice and education strategic plans as well as information to guide decision making around research funding.
该研究的目的是确定加拿大肿瘤护理人员的肿瘤护理研究重点。向以下两组护士邮寄了调查问卷：肿瘤护理研究人员以及在肿瘤临床环境中工作且是加拿大肿瘤护理协会（CANO）成员的护士。该问卷基于先前的肿瘤护理协会（ONS）研究调查以及肿瘤护理文献。它要求参与者从一系列主题中选出他们认为的五个研究重点并进行排序。CANO成员的回复率为31%（249/810），护理研究人员的回复率为41%（32/78）。CANO成员的前五项研究重点是沟通、症状管理、生活质量、疼痛控制/管理以及实践标准。护理研究人员的前五项研究重点是疼痛控制/管理、家庭问题、患者参与决策、症状管理以及沟通。许多相同的主题出现在CANO成员和护理研究人员的重点列表中。然而，主题的排序并不相同。CANO成员的列表包含临床和专业问题，而研究人员的列表主要侧重于临床问题。这些发现为制定加拿大国家肿瘤护理研究议程提供了依据。此外，这些发现为实践和教育战略计划提供了方向，并为围绕研究资金的决策提供了指导信息。
