Identification of Symptom Clusters and Sentinel Symptoms During Radiotherapy in Lung Cancer Patients: A Longitudinal Study
Lung cancer patients exhibit multiple stable symptom clusters during radiotherapy, with sentinel symptoms varying by phase. These insights offer new perspectives on timed assessments and precision nursing interventions, while providing key theoretical and practical guidance for building early warning models and intelligent symptom management pathways.
