Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) is a common and severe symptom experienced by patients undergoing cancer treatment during the acute or delayed period. Individual characteristics can compound risk for CINV. Identification of risk factors for CINV and structured, nurse-led telephone follow-up are effective, evidence-based methods to support patients undergoing cancer treatment. The authors successfully implemented a structured, nurse-led CINV intervention to improve assessment, follow-up, and support for 30 patients undergoing chemotherapy within an adult ambulatory oncology clinic.
