Specialist nurse initiated interventions in breast cancer care: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials.

CONCLUSION: Even though specialist nursing interventions can contribute to health outcomes of women with breast cancer, there is limited number of studies reported from developing countries. This warrants the need for specialist nurse interventions in breast cancer care from developing countries. Relevance to clinical practice Offering a specialist nurse service helps the patients to meet their informational and educational needs, supportive care and coordination of care. Specialist breast nurse services can be integrated into hospital setting to improve patient care and treatment adherence. PMID: 32243012 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
