Resumo(s)
Head and neck tumours are the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. They are
hostile invasive neoplastic diseases that negatively impact individuals’ functionality. The aim of this
study was to map the nursing interventions to be carried out with head and neck cancer patients
in preoperative nursing consultations. Given the study’s aim, a scoping review was chosen based
on the principles advocated by the Joanna Briggs Institute and using the CINAHL and Medline
databases. The review was conducted in April and May 2021. Of the 56 articles obtained, only 1 met
the inclusion criteria, indicating a gap in studies about head and neck cancer patients. Preoperative
nursing consultations allow patients and family members to ask questions and voice concerns.
The nursing intervention identified by the review included interviews, in which nurses explain
the concepts related to the diagnosis, the procedures involved in the surgery, and the inherent
consequences. Flyers containing images and photos can be used to facilitate interpretation.
Descrição
The present study was funded by the Centre for Research, Innovation, and Development in Nursing, in Portugal, by means of grants provided to some of the authors (CIDNUR,
