    This study aimed to monitor and evaluate the occurrence and intensity level of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea in patients with colon cancer, submitted to outpatient chemotherapy, who received nursing information for handling these symptoms. Study participants were 17 patients, who were treated with 5-Fluorouracil and low doses of folinic acid, at the Adult Outpatient Chemotherapy Clinic of the Hospital São Paulo/Federal University of São Paulo, Brazil. Instruments were elaborated for registering these symptoms' occurrence and intensity level and a patient guide for handling them. The information and patient monitoring were carried out by the nurse during the consultations. The results showed that most of the patients (82.4%) displayed at least one of the signs and symptoms under study between the first and the 21st day of the treatment cycle. Nausea was the most frequent symptom (76.5%), with a peak on the 4th and 5th day of the cycle, followed by diarrhea (70.5%), with a peak on the 7th day, and vomiting (53.0%), with a peak on the 5th day. Regarding the intensity of these symptoms, most patients were classified as level 1, which was established as acceptable for this study. These results indicate that the nursing instructions and the continuous monitoring contributed to the effectiveness of the patient's symptom management.

    The purpose of the present descriptive study was to identify, through a retrospective analysis of records, the nature of nursing interventions as well as to establish the relationship between the nature of these interventions and the problems found. The sample was formed by 184 records of patients in their first nursing consultation at the Adult Chemotherapy Outopatiet Unit of Hospital São Paulo from January to June,1997; 37 records were selected at random: 19 male and 18 female patients. Results showed the predominance of interventions centered in patients' psychobiological needs. Educative interventions were more frequently performed when related to patients psychosocial needs. The correspondence between the identified problems and proposed interventions was evidenced when the psychobiological needs were met.
