Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To provide a review of who is surviving cancer diagnosed within the last 20 years and key areas for research development related to cancer survivorship. DATA SOURCES: Articles, studies, and Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results statistics. CONCLUSIONS: The information we have on today's survivors must be periodically revisited and revised to equip cancer patients with the knowledge and tools they need to master the new realities of their survivorship. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: With the increasing numbers of individuals being cured of or living long periods of time following a diagnosis of cancer, oncology nurses who work with cancer survivors must maintain their knowledge of the issues and practices critical to the well-being of the patient.
