M7D1: Planning Care for the Client with Laryngeal Cancer

 

 

A 65-year-old male was admitted for evaluation of pain on swallowing and a sore throat that has persisted for the past year. The discomfort has not changed with the use of various over-the-counter cold remedies. The client has lost weight due to a decrease in appetite and difficulty swallowing. He has smoked 3 packs of cigarettes a day for 40 years.

A laryngoscopy showed a subglottic mass. The client had a total laryngectomy with tracheostomy to manage laryngeal cancer. He also has a nasogastric tube in place.
