History Patient 10 is a 59-year-old female recently diagnosed with lung cancer. She was a smoker, but started vaping 10 years ago as a replacement. She has been admitted for her first Chemotherapy and Radiation session, which is an aggressive approach and will take 10–14 days to complete. She will be monitored continuously during this first session in the Oncology Unit. She receives IV saline during the evening to help prevent dehydration and to reduce nausea.
