Patterns of immunotherapy-induced pneumonitis in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer: a case series.

Background: Immunotherapy has become an efficacious option in the management of solid organ malignancies. Immune-related adverse events including pneumonitis are well described and may be particularly of concern in patients receiving immunotherapy for non-small-cell lung cancer.

Case Presentations: In this paper, we describe three cases of immunotherapy-induced pneumonitis occurring in the management of lung malignancy.

Rural health professionals' experiences in implementing advance care planning: a focus group study.

Advance care planning (ACP) is described as an ongoing discussion between a patient, their family and healthcare professionals (HCPs) to understand a patient's wishes for future health care. Legislation supporting ACP in Western Australia is relatively new and HCPs are still learning about the process and implementation. This study aimed to provide a rich description of rural health professionals' perceptions and experiences with ACP within the context of their professional role and to identify systemic issues and training needs.
