College of Nursing Art and Science

Professor Yuko Kawasaki

We are analyzing the decision-making structure of people undergoing cancer treatment and the clinical judgment structure of healthcare professionals involved in decision support. Based on the results, we are estimating the “decisive factors for decision-making” and building an “application to visualize the values of cancer patients”.

So far, we have produced a guide to help cancer patients make decisions, “Even if you have cancer... lead a satisfying life as you are”.

In the past, we have created a guide for cancer patients to help them make decisions, titled, Even if you have cancer… to live a fulfilling life in your own way.
