A nurse has been asked to create a cancer risk reduction pamphlet for the clients who come to a clinic that serves a large African American population
Therefore, prevention and early detection tips for which cancer types would be most important to include in this pamphlet? A. Lung and prostate
B. Bone and leukemia
C. Skin and lymphoma
D. Stomach and esophageal
A
Both the incidence and death rates from lung and prostate cancers in the African American pop-ulation are greater than for any other racial group. The incidence of lung cancer has been proven to be reduced by smoking cessation and deaths from prostate cancer can be reduced by early de-tection. Thus, targeting information for these two cancers specifically for an African American population may have the greatest impact for reduction of cancer risks and cancer deaths.
