Objective:To gain a deeper understanding of the experience of medical staff in the oncology department in understanding and managing chemotherapy-induced taste alterations (CITAs).Methods:Using phenomenological research methods, in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 medical staff in the oncology department of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, and the interview materials were transcribed, encoded, categorized, and described by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:Totally 15 respondents aged 26-43, 3 males and 12 females. Three themes were extracted, including the perception of benefits of CITAs symptom management ("hard outcome" benefit perception - improving symptom management level; "soft outcome" benefit perception-enhancing effective communication among multiple parties); the obstacles between the lack of awareness of knowledge about CITAs and symptom management (differences in medical staff′s understanding of CITAs; low accessibility of acquisition channels about CITAs knowledge); the management and intervention measures of CITAs lack specialization and high efliciency (CITAs′ management measures mostly stem from work experience; CITAs′ management may be based on information construction in the future).Conclusions:Hospital managers should fully utilize the opportunity of symptom management in CITAs, develop professional and efficient intervention and management strategies, strengthen the learning of relevant knowledge of the symptom among medical staff in oncology department, reduce symptom distress and patient self-perception burden, and improve the level of symptom management among medical staff in the oncology department.
