From single site to societal belief: the impact of pediatric oncology nursing research.
This review describes the evolution of pediatric oncology nursing research over the past 25 years. It highlights practice-changing contributions from single-site studies and from multisite trials and discusses strategies for interdisciplinary collaboration. Technological advances that will alter the way in which studies are conducted and findings are disseminated will influence the future of nursing research. Studies implemented by pediatric nurse researchers will continue to influence practice and change how we, and others, view the experience of childhood cancer.
