Introduction

Welcome to the Biology of Cancer and Haematology for Semester 1, 2016.

Understanding the biology of cancer and haematology malignancies is a prerequisite for

advanced cancer and haematology nursing practice. This unit of study provides the biomedical

scientific foundations for cancer and haematology nursing practice. The unit consists of four

modules in which students will explore the following topics in relation to their specialist practice

role: 1. biological concepts in cancer and haematology; 2. principles of treatment intent, kinetics

and dynamics; 3. synthesising pathophysiology and therapy in specific tumour groups; and 4.

understanding nursing care and clinical decision making in a context of evidence based

practice.

Unit Structure

Credit Points: 6

Level: Postgraduate, Post-registration

Semester: 1

Delivery Mode: Block mode/Blended learning

Classes: Distance education/intensive on campus (with 4 study days)

Unit Summary

This unit of study will provide the scientific basis for cancer and haematology nursing practice.

Students will examine, in detail, biological concepts related to haemopoiesis, immunology,

carcinogenesis, genetics and epigenetics. Recent advances in the understanding of the biology

of cancer will be discussed. This unit of study will provide a framework and foundation for

understanding the impact of both malignant disease and therapeutic management. Biological

and physiological principles that support cancer treatments will be reviewed in detail. A detailed

understanding of the biology of malignant disease together with that of the physiological effect

of treatment is imperative for developing skills and capacity in specialist cancer and

haematology nursing practice.

Unit Aim

This unit builds on existing knowledge of normal physiology to support students in the

development of their understanding of altered physiology, specifically in relation to cancer and

haematology. Students will integrate their understanding of the trajectory of normal to altered

physiology, with clinical experience. In doing so, they will apply their knowledge in distinguishing

between and recognising the inter-relatedness of clinical presentations of; malignant disease,

complications of cancer treatment and co morbidities. Students will be encouraged to

consistently relate core constructs and concepts to clinical practice by asking ‘what is

happening?’ and ‘what does this mean?’

6. Unit of Study Outline - Semester 1, 2016

Learning Outcomes

In addition to any personal learning outcomes you set yourself, by the end of this unit, you

should have or be able to;

1. apply knowledge of normal and altered physiology in cancer and haematology patients to

physical and clinical assessment findings;

1. critically evaluate the clinical management of cancer and haematology patients; and

1. critique research-based information that informs cancer and haematology nursing practice.

2. The assessment component of this unit of study has been designed to measure these

learning outcomes through the student’s ability to analyse the literature, reflect on

experience and construct a scholarly piece of work.

Graduate Attributes

The University of Sydney policy specifies two levels of graduate attributes. There are three

overarching graduate attributes – Scholarship, Lifelong Learning, and Global Citizenship –

which reflect the research intensive nature of the University, its scholarly values in relation to

research-led teaching, and the place of its graduates in a global society. These attributes are

developed through students’ participation as active members of the university community,

through extracurricular activities as well as their formal studies. These overarching attributes are

built on our graduates’ development of the next level of graduate attributes. The development of

these attributes is explicitly focussed on in teaching and assessment in students’ formal courses

of study at the University.

This unit of study has been designed to specifically focus on the development of students’

abilities in:

1. Research and Inquiry – Graduates of the university will be able to exercise critical judgment

and critical thinking in creating new understanding. Nursing graduates will be creative and

imaginative thinkers who have an informed respect for the principles, methods, standards,

values and boundaries of their discipline and the capacity to question these who are also able to

critically evaluate existing understandings and recognise the limitations of their own knowledge;

2. Personal and Intellectual Autonomy - Graduates of the University will be able to work

independently and sustainably, in a way that is informed by openness, curiosity and a desire to

meet new challenges. Nursing graduates will be intellectually curious and able to sustain

intellectual interest and open to new ideas, methods and ways of thinking. Capable of

identifying processes and strategies to learn and meet new challenges and independent

learners who take responsibility for their own learning, and are committed to continuous

reflection, self-evaluation and self-improvement;

3. Ethical, Social and Professional Understanding -Graduates of the University will hold

personal values and beliefs consistent with their role as responsible members of local, national,

international and professional communities. Nursing graduates will acknowledge their personal

responsibility for their own value judgments and behaviour, understand and accept social,

NURS5056: The Biology of Cancer and Haematology 7.

cultural, global and environmental responsibilities and have an appreciation of and respect for

diversity while holding a perspective that acknowledges local, national and international

concerns; and

4. Communication - Graduates of the University will recognise and value communication as a

tool for negotiating and creating new understanding, interacting with others, and furthering their

own learning. Nursing graduates will make effective use of oral, written and visual means to

critique, negotiate, create and communicate understanding and use communication as a tool for

interacting and relating to others

Assessments Items

Assessment 1

Assessment type: Essay

Length: 2,000 words

Value: 40%

Topic: There is a professional and societal expectation that health care be based on the best

available evidence, and in an effort to ensure best practice, organisations develop policies,

procedures or clinical practice guidelines to regulate clinical practice. While institutional

documents have a perceived high level of authority, it is not always clear to clinicians whether

such documents are based on the best available evidence.

In this assessment you are required to select from your health care organisation one area of

clinical practice that is regulated by either a clinical practice guideline or policy document and

examine the authority of this document in relation to the current literature. It is expected that you

will:

? write a focused clinical question relating to one aspect of clinical practice;

? describe your search strategy and its output;

? provide an annotated bibliography of at least five articles that specifically address your

clinical question; and

? discuss your perception of the strength of your chosen guideline or document, based on

current evidence.

Unit Content

The content of this unit of study is presented in four modules; biological concepts in cancer and

haematology; principles of treatment intent, kinetics and dynamics; synthesising

pathophysiology and therapy in specific tumour groups; understanding nursing care and clinical

decision making in a context of evidence based practice.

Module one examines cancer and haematology related pathophysiology. The module will

provide a foundation of understanding in key biological concepts; haemopoiesis, immunology,

carcinogenesis, genetics and epigenetics. They will be presented within the contexts of

screening, surveillance and diagnosis.

In module two, the therapeutic principles of cancer treatment modalities, including but not

limited to: haemopoetic stem cell transplant, surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and

biotherapy, will be examined. Contemporary approaches to treatment including targeted therapy

and risk adapted therapy will be critically evaluated. Treatment kinetics and treatment dynamics

will be examined in the contexts of normal and altered physiology.

Module three builds on the content of modules one and two, integrating pathophysiology and

treatment approaches within specific tumour groups. Through examination of current research

directions and management guidelines, students will critique and contextualise evidence based

practice and the notion of best practice within their tumour group of interest.

Module four will interrogate how pathophysiology and treatment informs nursing care across

the trajectory of the cancer journey. The module will examine how assessment and clinical

judgement in the cancer and haematology context are informed by specific pathophysiology and

treatment effects. Clinical decision making and contemporary nursing care will be examined in

the context of rapidly changing situations and changes in treatment intent, for example from

curative to palliative intent. Vignettes and simulated work scenarios will be used throughout to

stimulate discussion, debate and reflection
