ضعف و خستگی
Although most cancer patients report that fatigue is a major obstacle to maintaining normal daily activities and quality of life, it is seldom assessed and treated in clinical practice.
Fatigue is a highly prevalent condition among cancer patients.
What is fatigue? Tiredness, exhaustion, or lack of energy not
relieved by rest A condition which impacts your ability to
perform your usual or expected activities Seen frequently in hospice and palliative
care patients A complicated symptom which can have
many causes including disease, emotional state, and treatments
Sometimes comes with depressed feelings
What are the signs of fatigue?
“Just too tired” to perform your normal activities or routines
Lack of appetite or not having energy to eat
Sleepiness Not talking Depression
Cancer-related fatigue can be an expression of (pre-existing) depression and can also be a cause of depression.The two-question test consists of the following questions: “In the last month, have you often felt dejected, sad,
depressed, or hopeless?” “In the last month, have you gotten much less pleasure
than usual out of the things that you normally like to do?”

Non-pharmacological Treatments
Gradually increase your activity. Do so gradually in order to conserve energy
Keep a log of which time of day seems to be your best time Plan, schedule and prioritize activities at optimal times of the day Eliminate or postpone activities that are not your priority Change your position and do not just stay in bed Use sunlight or a light source to cue the body to feel energized Try activities that restore your energy, such as music, or
spending time outdoors in nature or meditation Allow caregivers to assist you with daily activities such as eating,
moving or bathing if necessary. Plan activities ahead of time Encourage your family to be accepting of your new energy pace
Rest and sleep better Listen to your body – rest as needed Establish and continue a regular bedtime and
awakening Avoid interrupted sleep time and try to get
continuous hours of sleep Plan rest times or naps during the day late
morning and mid afternoon Avoid sleeping later in the afternoon which could
interrupt your night time sleep Ask if using oxygen when you sleep will help you
to sleep better
Increase food intake Try nutritious, high protein food Small frequent meals Add protein supplements to foods or
drinks Frequent mouth care (before and after
meals) Ask about possible use of medications
to stimulate your appetite or relieve fatigue

افسردگی
Depression occurs in 13-26% of patients with terminal illness
Patients are at high risk of suicide and have an increased desire for hastened death
A useful depression screening question is, “Have you been depressed most of the time for the past two weeks?”
A diagnosis of depression in the terminally ill may be made when at least two weeks of depressed mood is accompanied by symptoms of hopelessness, helplessness, worthlessness, guilt, lack of reactivity, or suicidal ideation
Risk factors personal or family history of depression, social isolation, concurrent illnesses (e.g., COPD, CHF), alcohol or substance abuse, poorly controlled pain, advanced stage of illness, certain cancers (head and
neck, pancreas, primary or metastatic brain cancers), chemotherapy agents (vincristine, vinblastine,
asparagines, intrathecal methotrexate, interferon, interleukin),
corticosteroids (especially after withdrawal), abrupt onset of menopause (e.g. withdrawal of
hormone replacement therapy, use of tamoxifen).
Management Strategies Non-pharmacological treatments are
the mainstay of treatment for the symptom of depression without a diagnosis of primary affective disorder
Treatment of pain and other reversible physical symptoms should occur before initiating antidepressant medication.
Non-pharmacological Treatment for Depression
• Exercise, rest, nutrition, social and spiritual support• Psychotherapy• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
What can be done for depression?
You may: Optimize physical status with rest and nutrition Set small, realistic, achievable goals Utilize relaxation techniques Consider complementary therapies such as
aromatherapy, art and music therapyYour caregiver may: Keep you and your area safe Let you know that they will be there Allow you to express feelings Allow you to control as much as possible
related to treatment decisions and activities
Edema (Swelling) Puffiness or swelling of legs, ankles,
feet, arms, face, or hands Clothes, shoes, rings, or watches that
feel too tight Skin that is shiny, feels tight, indents or
dimples when pressed Sudden weight gain
What can you do for the patient to prevent and treat edema?
Elevate the affected area when sitting or lying down
Remind them to avoid crossing legs when sitting, and avoid standing for long periods
Teach correct application and care if compression stockings (support stockings) are worn
Encourage limiting their intake of salt and sodium
How you can support the family Inform the family that they play an
important role in managing the edema Reinforce that sometimes edema may
not go away Reinforce that the goal is patient
comfort and edema may not be painful Teach them how to elevate affected
area (For example: use of pillows, recliner, and/or propping feet on a stool)
Let the family know that if moving the affected area appears to cause pain, tell the interdisciplinary team
SeizuresThe person having a seizure may have some or none of these signs. Muscle jerking/twitching (convulsion) Stiffening of the body Unable to awaken for a period of time Loss of bladder control Blurred vision, eyes rolling back, blank staring or
blinking Inability to speak, difficulty talking Sudden confusion or memory loss Recurring movements – chewing, lip smacking, clapping
What can you do for the patient?
If you are with a patient who is having a seizure it is important to keep in mind that
safety is the first concern
How can you support the family?
Remain with the patient throughout the seizure Encourage the family to remain calm Family members may believe the patient will “swallow” his/her
tongue. This is not possible, though the tongue may “relax” in the pack of the throat causing the airway to be obstructed. If it is determined the patient is not breathing after a seizure, reposition his/her head to open the airway and administer breaths if necessary
Discourage the family from restraining the patient or placing anything in his/her mouth, which could cause injury to the patient or family member
Family members may have been instructed by a nurse or doctor to administrate certain anti-seizure or sedating drugs during the seizure
Contact the hospice or palliative care nurse if you have any questions or concerns
Self-Care for the CaregiverPhysical needs Remember to take care of your own health Keep your own doctor appointments Schedule time to eat. Have at least 3 healthy but simple meals a
day Learn to make meals in advance. Ask friends/family if they could
help with making meals Ask how best to provide care to your loved one and prevent
injuring yourself Take time to rest, especially if sleeping has become hard for your Avoid/limit the use of tobacco and alcohol as they make it difficult
to fall asleep Try to get some form of exercise in the day Take time alone. This can include walking, reading, listening to
music, baths, praying, gardening, etc.
Communication needs Tell people about your worries. These people
may be family, friends, or some of the healthcare providers working with you to help care for your loved one
Be informed! Ask what signs and symptoms to expect from the patient so that you are prepared to deal with them
Get organized and set realistic goals for your day. Keep it real and be flexible. Set limits
Ask others to help with whatever you or your loved one needs
Emotional/spiritual needs Keep relationships with family and friends to avoid feeling alone. If it is
difficult for you to get out, ask people to come visit. Let people take care of you and allow your loved one to say thank you for all you do
Work with your team to provide time to get out of the home to enjoy social activities or attend support groups. When possible, keep doing favorite activities. Try to keep things simple
Talk about your fears about what is happening to your loved one. Also, talk about any concerns or frustrations you may have
Even though you are feeling stressed, tell yourself every day you are doing a great job
Let your hospice/palliative staff know if you are feeling overwhelmed. Your team has ways to help, including nursing assistants and other resources
Attend to your spiritual needs by calling or visiting your clergy, church or synagogue
Have your own “special space.” This can be your room, a chair, a table, etc. Someplace that is yours where you can go unwind
Seek additional professional help if you are feeling scared, helpless, lost, or depressed
