What we wanted was first, education of the patient. Can we successfully educate the patient to prepare them? Can we alleviate as much anxiety as possible so that they feel comfortable coming in and having this done? The second goal is to preserve kidney function throughout the treatment. To date, we've been successful with that. And the third goal is to complete treatment without infection," ONS member Chris Amoroso, BSN, RN, OCN ® , registered nurse at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia, PA, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS ® , manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about intrarenal administration for upper urothelial tract disease.
