“…Support interventions should usefully integrate lifestyle issues, neuropsychological rehabilitation, and coping support. In agreement with other studies for nursing practice, it is recommended to expand the role of oncology nurses, providing them with the training and competencies needed to formally declare them as care managers throughout the continuum of cancer care [25].…”

“…Most likely, older patients experience a major change in their relationship with the doctors once the intensive treatment period is over. For instance, frequently postponed follow-up sessions because they were no longer at the top of the doctor's priorities and/or contact with many doctors for various treatments at various hospitals, and thus higher levels of emotional distress or concerns may be experienced by older cancer survivors, highlighting the unique role of nursing in improving the quality of care for cancer survivors [25]. Remarkably, in our study, older patients suffering from comorbidities experienced higher levels of significant distress compared to those free of comorbidities, although comorbidities were not associated with the increased number of supportive care needs, suggesting that chronic diseases are associated with higher rates of significant distress.…”

(1) Background: Cancer patients are experiencing psychological problems after diagnosis, such as emotional distress and social anxiety, which may increase their demands for emotional and supportive care. This study aimed to assess the influence of both emotional distress and concerns on the supportive care needs of cancer patients receiving home-based healthcare. (2) Methods: In this door-to-door screening program, 97 cancer patients were approached, with a mean age of 73 years old (mean = 73.43; SD = 6.60). (3) Results: As expected, 42.3% of patients highlighted their treatment as their main psychological priority, with 20.6% identifying concerns about the future of their family in this regard. No significant associations with respect to sex were identified in terms of focus, though females reported the need for more frequent psychological support (58.7% vs. 37.3%, respectively, p = 0.035) compared to males. Patients who had experienced an increased number of concerns during the last weeks (IRR = 1.02; 95% CI: 1.00–1.03, p = 0.007) had a significantly greater risk of presenting an increased rate of supportive care needs. Notably, male patients with bone cancer presented a significantly greater number of supportive care needs (mean rank 45.5 vs. 9.0, p = 0.031) respectively, in comparison to those with other types of cancer. (4) Conclusions: Supportive care needs arise from a greater concern and specific type of cancer, highlighting the need for supportive care, such as psychosocial and psychological support. This may have significant implications for treatment and patient outcomes in home care settings.

Pancreas units represent new organizational models of care that are now at the center of the European debate. The PUECOF study, endorsed by the European–African Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (E-AHPBA), aims to reach an expert consensus by enquiring surgical leaders about the Pancreas Units’ most relevant organizational factors, with 30 surgical leaders from 14 countries participating in the Delphi survey. Results underline that surgeons believe in the need to organize multidisciplinary meetings, nurture team leadership, and create metrics. Clinical professionals and patients are considered the most relevant stakeholders, while the debate is open when considering different subjects like industry leaders and patient associations. Non-technical skills such as ethics, teamwork, professionalism, and leadership are highly considered, with mentoring, clinical cases, and training as the most appreciated facilitating factors. Surgeons show trust in functional leaders, key performance indicators, and the facilitating role played by nurse navigators and case managers. Pancreas units have a high potential to improve patients' outcomes. While the pancreas unit model of care will not change the technical content of pancreatic surgery, it may bring surgeons several benefits, including more cases, professional development, easier coordination, less stress, and opportunities to create fruitful connections with research institutions and industry leaders.

“…Nesse contexto, a literatura define que é essencial que a equipe de profissionais adote uma abordagem holística em relação ao paciente e ao familiar que o acompanha durante a hospitalização (BASHKIN et al, 2023;BAZZANO, 2023;DIAZ et al, 2023). E isso implica em fornecer um cuidado humanizado, estabelecendo vínculos, promovendo a troca de informações, facilitando o diálogo e implementando outras estratégias ao longo de todo o processo de cuidado ao paciente.…”
