Abstract
[Extract] Breathlessness is a symptom frequently encountered by people with cancer, which often has an enormous impact on independence, confidence, self-esteem and quality of life (Hately et al., 2003). It is crucial that therapists have a clear understanding of the nature of breathlessness in cancer and are confident in supporting patients to develop strategies to cope with this symptom.
