The concept of health promotion provides opportunities and challenges for cancer nurses to work in partnership with other healthcare providers to enhance the health and quality of life of cancer patients.
In many countries, cancer is the leading or the second leading cause of death.1,2 The incidence of cancer has continued to increase steadily worldwide throughout the last century. Because of advances in early cancer detection and cancer treatments, the 5-year survival rates of all cancer patients have increased dramatically worldwide. Therefore, it is critical to plan for the future health of today's cancer patients by implementing health promotion interventions during and after treatment.3 The need for health promotion may be even more critical for people with cancer whose quality of life and ability to continue living independently often heavily rely on maintaining their health, which may be significantly compromised by cancer.
Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase control over, and to improve their health.” Health Promotion Glossary, 1998
A brief history of Health Promotion
The first International Conference on Health Promotion was held in Ottawa in 1986, and was primarily a response to growing expectations for a new public health movement around the world. It launched a series of actions among international organizations, national governments and local communities to achieve the goal of "Health For All" by the year 2000 and beyond.

The skeletal system protects the brain and other important organs
Pathway of blood through the heart is described below.
Explanation:
1.Blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium of the heart.As the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the heart through the pulmonic valve, into the pulmonary artery and to the lungs where it is oxygenated.
2. Blood enters the right atrium from the superior and inferior venae cavae,
and the coronary sinus.
From right atrium, it goes through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle.
From the right ventricle, it goes through the pulmonary semilunar valves to the pulmonary trunk
3. From the pulmonary trunk it moves into the right and left pulmonary
arteries to the lungs.
From the lungs, oxygenated blood is returned to the heart through the pulmonary veins.
4. From the pulmonary veins, blood flows into the left atrium.
From the left atrium, blood flows through the bicuspid (mitral) valve into the left ventricle. From the left ventricle, it goes through the aortic semilunar valves into the
ascending aorta.
Blood is distributed to the rest of the body (systemic circulation) from the aorta
