| dc.description.abstract | Purpose This study aims to investigate frequency and causes of emergency department visits among oncology patients aged 65 and older. Method In this cross-sectional, descriptive and comparative study, data were collected a questionnaire form from a single emergency deparment of a university hospital in & Idot;zmir, West Turkey between January 2022 and July 2022. Data were analyzed by using IBM SPSS Statistics 25 software. Results A total 125 patients were included in the study. The most common causes of patients to the emergency derparment were infection, pain, nausea-vomiting, and dyspnea. A significant difference was found between the reason for the patient's emergency department visit and their knowledge of when to seek medical help (p < 0.05). Conclusion The recurrent visits of cancer patients to emergency departments suggest an inadequacy of comprehensive information available to both patients and their caregivers concerning the pursuit of emergency medical intervention. | en_US |
