In the past, receiving a diagnosis of cancer was tantamount to being told one was going to die, and because it was feared that patients would not be able to cope with this knowledge, doctors frequently withheld information from patients about their diagnosis. With recent adcances than ever. However, a review of the literature appeatrs to indicate that patients still have knowledge deficits with regard to their diagnosis, treatment and its side ‐effects. A study of 30 patients receiving chemotherapy for cancer was undertaken to determine their knowledge about their diagnosis, Treatment and its side‐effects. The vast majority knew their diagnosis, the number of treatments involved and the purpose of their treatment. However, the patients in this study displayed a poor knowledge of the potential side‐effects of their chemotherapy and of the names of the drugs they were receiving as part of their chemotherapy.

Nurses maintain that they can assist individuals with chronic illness to cope with their health problems experienced in daily living through health (patient) teaching. However, several authors claim that in planning health teaching, nurses tend to rely on their perceptions of the learning needs of persons, as opposed to drawing upon the individual's understanding of their needs. Few research studies have investigated the health teaching needs of persons with chronic illness from their unique point of view. This study examined the perceived learning needs to manage the associated health problems of young adults with asthma. The University of British Columbia Model for Nursing provided an innovative and holistic means to attain perceptions in the health teaching assessment process and facilitated the development of a learning needs assessment tool. Survey methodology was used. A convenience sample of 40 young adults between the ages of 20 and 45 years was interviewed. Twenty of the sample resided in British Columbia, Canada, and 20 in Ontario, Canada. Implications of findings are discussed with regard to nursing practice.

Until now the nursing diagnosis knowledge deficit has served as a label for all teaching/learning situations. This is inadequate and does not effectively give direction to correct intervention(s). The purpose of this article is to present the diagnostic concept, situational learning disability (SLD), a component of Alterations in Learning, which has been identified as an area to be devel‐oped in the Knowing pattern of the NANDA taxonomy. A thorough review of the literature and empirical support involving 20 cardiology patients on a 27‐bed telemetry step‐down unit is provided. The data support the development of two nursing diagnoses: (1) situational learning disability: impaired ability to learn; and (2) situational learning disability: lack of motivation to learn. The proper identification of these diagnoses can assist nurses in discriminating between patients who can learn, those who cannot learn, and those who need adjustments made in order to facilitate their learning. With this information nurses will be able to make decisions concerning the timing and type of intervention that is most appropriate.
