title: Structural visualization of expert nursing: Expert nursing care for extravasation of anticancer agent.
abstract: Chemotherapy aims to cure cancer or inhibit the growth of cancer cells by administering the anticancer agent in blood vessels (BV) to the cancer body. So it is very important to inject the agent in BVs without fail because there is risk of extravasation which brings about the chemical necrosis of the tissue around. Thus, nurses involved in chemotherapy care should learn to take interventions for prevention from extravasation and immediate treatment for it, in case. In the interventions there are care practices with advanced thinking processes. Clarification of such thinking processes contributes to the visualization of nursing practice and the support for nurses to learn expert nursing practices. Also it is supposed to realize the nursing quality assurance for care receiver-patients.
