Surviving Life After Cancer and Nursing Care: A Literature Review
Öz
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, recent advances in screening programs, early diagnosis, and the development of novel treatment modalities have contributed to a notable increase in cancer survival rates. As survival rates improve, attention has shifted toward the long-term health and well-being of cancer survivors. The end of active treatment does not signify the complete resolution of the disease experience; survivors often face a range of persistent physical, psychological, social, spiritual, and economic challenges. Many of these issues, including the late effects of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, and targeted therapies, may arise months or even years after treatment and can significantly impair quality of life. This evolving landscape necessitates a comprehensive approach to survivorship care, with a focus on promoting health-enhancing behaviors. Evidence indicates that regular physical activity and the adoption of healthy lifestyle practices play a critical role in reducing the risk of cancer recurrence and improving overall survival outcomes. Conversely, factors such as obesity and physical inactivity are associated with increased recurrence rates and reduced life expectancy. Therefore, supporting survivors in developing sustainable health behaviors is essential for optimizing long-term outcomes and ensuring a better quality of life post-treatment.
