Abstract

To provide an overview with the most up-to-date evidence on the management of cancer-treatment related mucositis. Peer-reviewed articles, textbooks, and the internet. A multitude of new and innovative treatments for the management of mucositis exist. Mucositis guidelines have changed to reflect the current evidence, but more research is needed on emerging modalities. Oncology nurses have a primary role in the assessment and early identification of mucositis. Educating patients and recommending evidence-based guidelines is paramount in preventing and ameliorating this challenging side effect of treatment.
