BMC Med Educ 2025 Jun Rehabilitation nursing for brain tumor patients: a scoping review

This scoping review investigates the specific functions and contributions of nurses within the specialized field of brain tumor rehabilitation. By analyzing existing literature, the study identifies that nursing professionals are essential for bridging communication among multidisciplinary teams and managing secondary medical complications that could otherwise hinder recovery. The research highlights a consistent framework where nurses provide comprehensive family support and gather critical patient data to sustain the momentum of long-term care. Ultimately, the authors argue that despite the high impact of nursing on a patient's quality of life, the field suffers from a significant lack of specialized training and standardized outcome measurements.
