email article Patients who suffer frequent chemotherapy-induced nausea (CIN) are more likely to experience neuropsychological symptoms and stress characteristics, according to a study presented at the virtual Oncology Nursing Society annual meeting. Compared with patients who did not experience nausea during their chemotherapy, the 28% of patients with high nausea occurrence across assessments had significantly higher scores for depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, morning and evening fatigue, as well as significantly higher levels of cognitive dysfunction, lower levels of morning and evening energy, and higher levels of pain intensity. "Clinicians need to assess patients for clinically induced nausea and the associated neuropsychological symptoms and stress characteristics for appropriate interventions," said Komal Singh, RN, PhD, of Edson College of Nursing and Health Innovation at Arizona State University in Phoenix.
