Painful blistered hands and feet

C Coyle et al. Clin J Oncol Nurs. 2001 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

CAE is a self-limiting toxicity seen with several types of high-dose chemotherapy. Treatment of these patients requires pain management and supportive therapy, including wound care that promotes healing, comfort, mobility, and quality of life and prevents infection. Oncology nurses play an important role in monitoring patients for CAE and providing supportive care.
