Description: Stages of cancer explained using the TNM system for nurses, nursing / healthcare students, as well as an oncology NCLEX review. Cancer Stages Quiz: registerednursern.com/cancer-staging-and-grading-nclex-questions-quiz-oncology Notes: registerednursern.com/cancer-classification-tumor-grading-and-staging-tnm Cancer can be graded and staged. These two terms each have different meanings and as the nurse you want to be familiar with the definition and the lingo used to communicate the grade and stage of your patient’s cancer. The tumor grades of low to high can be given numerical values to reflect this rating, but it’s important to note that some forms of cancer have they own grading systems, like breast cancer which uses the Nottingham system. Grade I: well differentiated, low grade Grade II: moderately differentiated, intermediate grade…cells have some differentiation Grade III: poorly differentiated, high grade Grade IV: undifferentiated, high grade…cells are extremely abnormal Tumor staging tells about the main tumor (location, size) and if the cancer has spread to other parts of the body like the lymph nodes or other organs. One system you want to be familiar with as the nurse is the TNM staging system. This system is used to stage cancers with solid tumors like found in colon cancer and other types. TNM stands for tumor, nodal involvement, and metastasis. The TNM system is used to calculate the stage of cancer.
