Case Study
Breast Cancer
Sarah Smith, a 45-year-old female, presents to the clinic with a chief complaint of discovering a lump in her left breast during self-examination. She reports no associated pain and has no other significant medical history. She has a family history of breast cancer, with her mother diagnosed at age 55. Physical examination reveals a palpable mass in the upper outer quadrant of the left breast. A mammogram and ultrasound are ordered for further evaluation.
- As a nurse caring for Sarah, how would you approach providing emotional support and addressing her concerns related to her family history of breast cancer?
- What nursing interventions would you prioritize to assist Sarah in coping with the anxiety and uncertainty surrounding her breast cancer diagnosis and the upcoming diagnostic procedures?
Case study answers are located in the Answer Key at the end of the book.
