Abstract: | We report the outpatient chemotherapy of an advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer. From April 2005 to May 2006, 50 patients were treated with FOLFIRI or FOLFOX in our hospital. Forty five patients (90%) had an intravenous catheter and a port for the chemotherapy, 23 patients (46%) were treated at the outpatient booths. We used the clinical pathway in chemotherapy for patients and co-medical roles. We were not experiencing emergency admission of side effects. Outpatient chemotherapy utilizing FOLFIRI or FOLFOX for advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer can be enforced safely by using the clinical pathway. |
