1.Factors Influencing Conflicts of Chemotherapy Decision Making among Pre-Operative Cancer Patients.
Asian Oncology Nursing 2017;17(2):69-78
PURPOSE: This study was attempted to grasp the factors affecting the decision-making conflicts of preoperative cancer patients. METHODS: The subjects of this study were 110 cancer patients scheduled to undergo surgeries at K university hospital. Data were collected utilizing scales for decision-making conflicts and anxiety state, and measurement tools for attitude toward treatment and, shared decision-making. RESULTS: The level of decision-making conflicts over cancer treatment of preoperative cancer patients turned out to be slightly lower than the median. There were significant correlations between shared decision-making between physicians and patients, and quality of life which was a subdomain of attitude toward treatment. In multiple regression analysis, the most powerful predictor was the shared decision-making of physicians and patients. Overall, the explanatory power of the measured variables for decisionmaking conflicts about cancer therapy was 20%. CONCLUSION: The study highlights the importance of shared decision-making and quality of life which involves attitude toward treatment. Thereby, it is deemed to be necessary to develop intervention strategies regarding decision-making conflicts about cancer treatment in consideration of these variables.

Regdanvimab is the only monoclonal antibody available in Korea that targets severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. We retrospectively evaluated the clinical characteristics of 374 adults hospitalized with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) who were treated with regdanvimab from September through December 2021. In total, 322 (86.1%) patients exhibited risk factors for disease progression. Most patients (91.4%) improved without additional treatment. No patient died or was transferred to intensive care. This study shows that regdanvimab prevented disease progression in high-risk patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 infections during Delta variant predominance.
