o Leukopenia
With antibacterial drugs, the client’s immune
defense mechanism aids in destroying the BONE MARROW SUPPRESSION
bacterially infected cells
Leukopenia (low mature leukocuytes) -
ANTICANCER DRUGS – compromise the
susceptible to infection
immune system and the drug fails to attack only
o Neutrophil count lower 500 mm3 – serious
cancer cells
infection
GOAL Limit visitor and contact sports
Proper hygiene
1. CURE – long term survival
Food; thin skinned fruit
Give large dose lethal (cytotoxic) to cancer
Thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) –
cells but small enough – tolerable to normal
petechiae, ecchymoses, bleeding of gums,
cells
noseblleds – should be reported
2. PALLIATIVE – control of tumor growth
o Avoid contact sport
Beyond control (alleviation of symptoms)
o S/Sx:
3. PROPHYLACTIC – if tumor is undetectable but
Increase menstrual flow
with possible recurrence
Coffee ground emesis
ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENTS Pinpoint red rash
Erythropenia (anemia) weakeness, easy
Works well with actively dividing cells fatigability, pallor
CELL CYCLE AND ITS PHASES o Iron rich foods
o Rest
G1 – enzyme production for DNA
S or synthesis – DNA synthesis and replication BONE MARROW DEPRESSION
G2 – RNA and CHON synthesis Observe for signs of bleeding
M or mitosis – cell division Check sign of infection
G0 – resting phase o Advice neutropenic diet = emphasize on
food handling
NEOPLASMS
Cleaning leads of can before opening
New or cancerous growth Cook at right temperature
Occurs when abnormal cells have the Chilling and refrigerate food
opportunity to multiply and grow Protective isolation (reverse isolation)
AUTONOMY INFERTILITY
Loss of the normal controls and reactions that Irreversible; pre treatment
inhibit growth and spreading Counselling is advised
Monoclonal antibodies
T/B Cell Suppressor
Used in conjunction with corticosteroids to block
inflammatory process
Drug used to block or suppress the actions of
the T cells and antibody production;
Used to prevent transplant rejection and treat
autoimmune diseases
NO giving of vaccines
Monoclonal Antibody
o Muromonab-CD3 / Orthoclone OKT3
o Trastuzumab / Herceptin,
o Rituximab / Rituxan
