Pathophysiology of lung cancer 

Lung cancer can be divided into primary and secondary lung cancer. Patients diagnosed with primary lung cancer exhibit uncontrolled growth of tumor cells that arise from the bronchi. Secondary lung cancer results from excessive deposits of cancer-causing cells in the lungs. Primary lung cancer is divided into small-cell lung cancer and non-small-cell lung cancer. Small cell lung cancer is the deadliest sub-type of lung cancer whose pathophysiology is complex and not well understood. However, extensive molecular genetic studies have revealed that repeated exposure to carcinogens, such as cigarette smoke induces a step-wise accumulation of genetic and epigenetic abnormalities leads in the lung epithelium (Gazdar, 2018). Continued exposure to cigarette smoke results in genetic mutations that affect the process of protein synthesis. This in turn disrupts the cell cycle and promotes carcinogenesis. Some of the most common genetic mutations that cause small-cell lung cancer include MYC, BCL2, and p53.

Risk factors for small cell lung cancer 

The risk of developing lung cancer increases as one is exposed to environmental and occupational pollutants. Cigarette smoking accounts for almost 90% of all lung cancer cases while occupational exposure accounts for 9-15% of lung cancer cases. Indeed, the development of small cell lung cancer is directly linked to the number of cigarettes smoked, years of smoking, and the amount of tar and nicotine in cigarettes. Asbestos is the most common occupational pollutant that leads to the development of small-cell lung cancer. Diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, and TB are associated with an increased risk for the development of lung cancer. Furthermore, radiation for non-lung cancer treatments such as breast cancer, and exposure to metals such as arsenic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons increases one’s likelihood of developing cancer.

Symptoms

Lung cancer is asymptomatic at the early stages and can only be diagnosed when the cancer is at advanced stages. Symptoms of the disease may be caused by endobronchial growth and distant metastases. The symptoms of the disorder include cough, hemoptysis, chest pain, wheezing, dyspnea, stridor, upper airway obstruction, pleural effusion, and dysphagia (Hammerschmidt & Wirtz, 2009). Early signs of the disease include weight loss, night sweats, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, fever, headache, and bone pains.

Lab Tests and Diagnostic procedures 

Screening is one of the evidence-based methods for early detection to allow the treatment of at-risk patients. Low-dose CT (LDCT) is one of the methods used for lung cancer screening. Laboratory testing for lung cancer includes complete blood count, serum chemistries, liver function testing, chest radiography, and chest CT (Nooreldeen & Bach, 2021). Diagnostic procedures for lung cancer include histological confirmation of diagnosis, staging, and analysis of a patient’s functional status. Histological diagnostic methods for lung cancer include bronchoscopy and lung tissue biopsy, MRI, PET-CT, pulmonary function tests, blood circulating antigen tests, ultrasonography, contrast-enhanced chest and upper abdominal CT scan, liquid biopsy, and transthoracic puncture guided by ultrasound, and computed tomography (Hammerschmidt & Wirtz, 2009; Nooreldeen & Bach, 2021).

Treatment 

Small-cell lung cancer is treatable. Common treatment approaches include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. However, Hammerschmidt & Wirtz (2009) argue that lung cancer treatment is multi-modal and hence the need to administer chemotherapy and radiotherapy simultaneously. Lung cancer can be prevented by reducing exposure to cigarette smoking and occupational pollutants.

  • Patients who are allergic to Senna, and those with undiagnosed abdominal pain, fever, nausea, rectal bleeding, and weakened muscles should be advised to avoid using Senokot. Patients with mild side effects should discuss with their primary care provider regarding the risks and benefits of the medication. Prolonged use of Senokot may cause diarrhea, which may affect the body fluids and electrolyte balance. Therefore, the patient should use the drug for a short time and inform her primary care provider in case of symptoms such as excessive thirst, muscle pain, dry mouth, numbness in the hands and feet, and elevated heartbeat.

Plan of Care

Formulate One Nursing Diagnoses (include ‘related to’ and ‘as ‘evidenced by’) refer to NANDA Develop Two short goals for your Nursing Diagnose. Develop 6 interventions in total for your ND three for each or mix it up. Rationale for each intervention with APA referencing Where did you find this information? Evaluation How the goals would be tested for effectiveness of the interventions?
Nursing Diagnosis:Acute pain related to disease process, chemotherapy and radiation therapy treatment, tumor growth, and inflation as evidenced by distractive and expressive behaviour, positioning to ease pain, and change in vital signs. The patient will report a decrease in pain in two weeks Intervention 1Assess causative factors of the pain and determine the pain characteristics (Vera, 2023).

Intervention 2

Assess the patient’s verbal and non-verbal pain cues, and the pathophysiological and psychological causes of pain.

Intervention 3

Evaluate the effectiveness of pain control measures at regular intervals

 

 

 

Rationale 1Determining the causative factors will help in planning and implementing appropriate interventions for preventing pain. Furthermore, assessing the pain characteristics will help in evaluating the effectiveness of the drugs used to treat pain (Vera, 2023 and Wagner, 2023).

Rationale 2

This will help assist the nurse to determine the degree of pain and need for interventions for reducing the pain (Wagner, 2023).

Rationale 3

This will ensure maximum pain control with minimum interference of activities of daily living (Vera, 2023 and Wagner, 2023).

The patient should be able to verbalize the causes of her pain and a reduction in pain.
Goal No. 2The patient will verbalize at least 2 methods of reducing pain Intervention 1Encourage the patient to use nonpharmacological pain relief measures (Vera, 2023).

Intervention No. 2

Administer relief medications as prescribed.

Intervention 3

Educate the pain about pain management plan such as rest periods and the need to stay in a quiet environment (Vera, 2023).

Goal No. 1Massage, mediation, diversional activities, and heat are critical in promoting relation and reducing pain. Furthermore, complimentary strategies such as yoga, aromatherapy and acupuncture can help relieve pain (Wagner, 2023).

Goal No.  2

Medications such as Opioids and NSAIDs help relief pain among patients with lung cancer (Wagner, 2023).

Goal No. 3

This will help reduced fatigue, external stimuli, and anxiety, thus conserving energy and improving the patient’s coping skills (Vera, 2023).

 

The patient should be able to verbalize methods that can be implemented to reduce pain.

Patient Education about Lung Cancer

What is lung cancer?

Lung cancer is a disorder characterized by uncontrolled and unregulated growth of cells that damage body tissues and organs. The main causative factor is cigarette smoking which accounts for at least 90% of all lung cancer cases. However, prolonged exposure to occupational pollutants such as asbestos, arsenic, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons increases one’s likelihood of developing cancer.

What are the symptoms of lung cancer?

Lung cancer has no specific signs and symptoms at its early stages. However, as the disease progresses, several symptoms associated with the tumor may develop. They include cough, hemoptysis, chest pain, wheezing, dyspnea, stridor, upper airway obstruction, pleural effusion, and dysphagia (Hammerschmidt & Wirtz, 2009). Early signs of the disease include weight loss, night sweats, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, fever, headache, and bone pains.

How can lung cancer be diagnosed?

Lung cancer can be diagnosed based on several diagnostic procedures including complete blood count, serum chemistries, liver function testing, bronchoscopy and lung tissue biopsy, MRI, PET-CT, pulmonary function tests, blood circulating antigen tests, ultrasonography, contrast-enhanced chest, and upper abdominal CT scan.

Lung cancer treatment option and Prevention 

Treatment options for lung cancer include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. Prevention of the disorder entails stopping smoking and reducing exposure to second-hand smoke and occupational pollutants. Patients should also be educated about lung cancer and its symptoms and encouraged to attend cancer screening clinics at least once every year.
