NGN Cаse Study Title: Cаncer аnd Chemоtherapy Questiоns 18-23 will address an unfоlding case study. Scenario: A 48-year-old woman had a lumpectomy after being diagnosed with carcinoma in the left breast. She had her first chemotherapy treatment with cyclophosphamide 2 months ago. Today she is in the outpatient cancer treatment center for her sixth round of chemotherapy; radiation therapy is planned after the tenth chemotherapy treatment is completed. The nurse documents these findings as part of today's admission assessment. Place a check mark next to any of the assessment findings that require follow-up by the nurse.
