Identifying symptom management strategies recommended across two or more symptoms could relieve multiple symptoms and reduce patient burden. Literature Search: The Oncology Nursing Society, National Comprehensive Cancer Network, and American Society of Clinical Oncology websites were searched to identify management guidelines for 15 symptoms. Data Evaluation: The authors extracted symptom management strategies and recommendations. Recommendations were synthesized by symptom across the guidelines, and recommended strategies were compared across symptoms. Synthesis: Among 32 guidelines reviewed, a total of 88 symptom management strategies (41 pharmacologic, 47 nonpharmacologic) were recommended across two or more symptoms. Implications for Practice: Findings support the potential for coordinated selection of symptom management strategies that cross over multiple symptoms in a patient. Investigators should test these symptom management strategies in the context of co-occurring symptoms and develop guidelines that address multiple symptoms.","url":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&db=mdl&AN=32830800&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513","isPdfLink":true,"isSAML":false,"additionalInfo":{"Authored_By":"Kwekkeboom KL, Wieben A, Stevens J, Tostrud L, Montgomery K","Journal_Info":"Publisher: Oncology Nursing Society Country of Publication: United States NLM ID: 7809033 Publication Model: Print Cited Medium: Internet ISSN: 1538-0688 (Electronic) Linking ISSN: 0190535X NLM ISO Abbreviation: Oncol Nurs Forum Subsets: MEDLINE","Publication_Type":"Journal Article","Published_Date":"2020-09-01","Source":"Oncology nursing forum [Oncol Nurs Forum] 2020 Sep 01; Vol. 47 (5), pp. 498-511.","Languages":"English","Electronic_ISSN":"1538-0688","MeSH_Terms":"Neoplasms*\/therapy , Palliative Care*, Humans ; Oncology Nursing","Subjects":"Humans, Oncology Nursing, Neoplasms therapy, Palliative Care","Title_Abbreviations":"Oncology nursing forum","Volume":"47"},"header":{"DbId":"mdl","DbLabel":"MEDLINE Ultimate","An":"32830800","RelevancyScore":"793","PubType":"Academic Journal","PubTypeId":"academicJournal","PreciseRelevancyScore":"792.984191894531"},"plink":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&site=eds-live&db=mdl&AN=32830800&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds","upload_link":"https:\/\/search.ebscohost.com\/login.aspx?direct=true&site=eds-live&db=mdl&AN=32830800&authtype=shib&custid=ns346513&group=main&profile=eds"}
