Breast cancer ppt
Breast cancer is the most common malignant condition of the breast. Some risk factors for breast cancer include hormonal factors like exposure to estrogen, genetic factors like mutations, lifestyle factors like alcohol use and lack of exercise, and reproductive factors like having a first child after age 30. Symptoms can include a new breast lump, breast skin changes, or nipple abnormalities. Treatment options include surgery like lumpectomy, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormonal therapy like tamoxifen, and lifestyle changes to prevent cancer.
Chemotherapy in Medical Surgical Nursing
Chemotherapy uses antineoplastic drugs to destroy tumor cells by interfering with cell function and reproduction. The goal is to kill as many tumor cells as possible while minimizing harm to healthy cells. Chemotherapy is used in different settings such as adjuvant therapy after tumor removal to prevent recurrence, neoadjuvant therapy before surgery to shrink tumors, and for palliation of metastatic disease. Higher drug doses over shorter periods may be more effective due to acquired resistance in tumor cells. Chemotherapy is administered via several routes including oral, intravenous, intramuscular, and intrathecal routes.
Concept and scope of community health nursing
The document discusses different concepts of health, including the biomedical concept, ecological concept, and psychosocial concept. The biomedical concept defines health as the absence of disease.

World brain tumor day # june 8 # awareness
World Brain Tumor Day is celebrated annually on 8th of June.
Brain tumor is a condition that occurs when the cells in the brain multiply in an abnormal way or a way that cannot be controlled. The tumor can be malignant meaning it is cancerous or it can be non-cancerous (benign).
The tumors are graded from grade 1 to 4 and this depends with their location, how fast the cells are multiplying and the spread to adjacent areas/organs.
The symptoms of brain cancer will vary from one person to another depending with the exact location of the tumor in the brain.
The common symptoms that may occur include:
Seizures
Persistent and severe headaches (migraines)
Persistent nausea and vomiting
Drowsiness
Behavioral and mental alterations like changes in personality and memory problems
Progressive weakness or paralysis of limbs located on one side of the body
Speech problems
Vision problems
if you know somebody having the same problem advise to meet the doctor for early diagnosis and treatment.
Brain tumors
Brain tumors are abnormal cell growths that develop in the brain and can be cancerous (malignant) or non-cancerous (benign). They are the second most common childhood cancer and symptoms depend on the tumor's location and size. Management may include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy to prevent complications from increased pressure on the skull. Nurses monitor patients for signs of increased intracranial pressure like headaches and vomiting and communicate any changes to doctors for timely intervention. The outlook depends on factors like tumor type, size, location, and how early treatment was initiated.

Brain Tumour Causes and Symptoms
A brain tumour can be defined as growth of abnormal cells inside the brain. Brain tumour can be of different types such as noncancerous/benign or cancerous/malignant. The growth of cancerous cells can begin inside the brain or can spread to brain from other parts of body. The speed of brain tumour growth depends on various factors. The brain & spine surgeon in Faridabad will suggest treatment options depending on the type, size and location of the brain tumour.
Brain Tumor Awareness Month
This document provides information about brain tumors and their treatment. It defines a brain tumor as abnormal cell growth in the brain that can be benign or malignant. Over 120 types of brain tumors exist, and it is estimated that 66,290 new primary and metastatic brain tumors will be diagnosed in the US in 2012. Common symptoms include headaches, vision changes, nausea, and fatigue. Treatment options include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery, and stereotactic radiosurgery. The document encourages learning more about brain tumors and getting involved in awareness and fundraising efforts. It also provides information about the local CyberKnife center that treats brain tumors.
Brain Cancer Powerpoint
Brain cancer, also known as glioma, occurs when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in the brain, destroying healthy brain tissue. Common symptoms include headaches, nausea, vomiting, and seizures. The most common types of brain tumors in children are pituitary tumors, glioblastomas, embryonal tumors, and pilocytic tumors. Risk factors include smoking, obesity, viruses, diet, alcohol consumption, and genetic predisposition. Treatment options are radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery to remove the tumor. Prevention strategies include a healthy diet, exercise, and avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol.

This document provides information about space occupying lesions (SOLs) such as brain tumors and abscesses. It defines SOLs as tumors or abscesses within the skull that compress brain tissue. The document discusses the epidemiology, types, risk factors, signs and symptoms, diagnostic evaluation, medical and surgical management, nursing care and complications of different SOLs. It provides detailed information about various brain tumors and abscesses, including definitions and characteristics.
Brain cancer (tumors)
Brain cancer, or tumors, refers to the abnormal growth of cells in the brain. There are two main types - benign tumors, which are non-cancerous and grow slowly, and malignant tumors, which are cancerous and grow rapidly, invading other brain tissue. Common symptoms include headaches, nausea, vision or balance problems, and changes in thinking or memory. Diagnosis involves scans, biopsies, and other tests to determine the type and location of the tumor, which help guide treatment options like surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and medication.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
