What is spoon theory?

Spoon Theory was written and created by Christine Miserando. This theory has been adapted here (Spoonie Kids) for the use of children, young people and their families, and an interactive worksheet is freely available to download.

A spoon is a metaphor or code word for an amount of energy. It's like a currency which can be saved or spent on different tasks. Using the language of spoons provides a simple measurable way of explaining to others the limited amount of energy available each day.

It can be used to support children and young people with chronic illness/other activity limiting conditions such as difficulties with sensory regulation, fatigue and pain management. It offers a powerful analogy that can help people understand the impact of highly variable levels of energy.

The main aim of the Spoon Theory is to simplify something that due to its complex and ever-changing nature is often misunderstood. It offers a straight forward way for a child to explain their specific needs for or limitations of, that day/activity/task so that they feel heard and understood.

It potentially not only enables the parent/carer/other adult to support the child to manage their energy levels and to not feel "overloaded". It could also prevent both child and adult becoming very frustrated because everyone understands that it's not that the child "won't" but that they "can't". As an example, the child could quite simply say to their parent who has asked them why they won't play out with their friend today when they enjoyed playing out yesterday "I was happy when I played out yesterday but I don't have enough spoons today".

It varies from day to day. One day a child may wake up and feel that it's a good day for them and get out of bed, have breakfast, clean their teeth and still feel they've got enough spoons to go to their appointment with the dentist. The next day it could feel like just getting out of bed could take the only spoons they had. Each day is different.

Everything !!

It's important to acknowledge however, that as individuals, the number of spoons each activity takes may be different from one child to another. For example, four basic morning tasks - getting out of bed, eating breakfast, getting dressed and cleaning teeth - for one child, each of those tasks may take one spoon and for another, it may take 4- dependant on how the body feels that day. If a child starts the day with say 8 spoons, the first child has used half of their spoons just getting ready, the second all of them. As everything else including things like walking to school, completing the multiple tasks of learning once there, socialising, eating and playing all use spoons. The first child has only half of their spoons left for that day's other activities and the second has none.

The environment can have a big impact on the cost of spoons too, noisy, busy areas may take more and leave less for the task in hand they are trying to complete. They will need support to "budget" their spoons.

When a child runs out of spoons life can feel overwhelming. They may need to take some time out, perhaps by having sensory downtime which can help to start replenishing their spoons. This will again be different for each child and learning what helps you as an individual is an important step.

Talk together.
Think about what sort of things costs a child spoons and also what helps them to increase their spoons. For example, quiet time in a favourite place.
You can download the free resource to help with this.

The hope is that with a shared language that is accepted and understood by children and the adults around them, the difficulties that can arise if a child feels they are not believed or listened to such as anger, frustration and low self-esteem may be significantly reduced. The value of considerate, understanding caregivers to maintain the well-being of the child cannot be underestimated.

Pathways

ESO and SIOP Europe have developed four e-Learning pathways covering topics in paediatric oncology. Each 45-minute e-Session is presented by leading oncology experts. Recordings remain freely available on demand for further visits.
This joint educational activity provides medical students, residents, fellows and junior faculty members in Europe and beyond support and electronically available resources needed to advance their training, by deepening their knowledge in paediatric oncology. By completing the 4 pathways, participants will receive valuable training and education, which they will use to effect change in cancer care in their home countries and institutions.
Once a pathway has been completed, participants will be awarded an e-ESO Certificate of Participation and will get 2 ESCO credits.

e learning module with self test quiz

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Coventry University in association with, and supported by Teenage Cancer Trust have designed this e-learning Webapp to help those new to working with Teenagers and Young Adults (TYA) with Cancer understand the key principles of care for addressing their unique needs. It also provides underpinning knowledge of teenage and young adulthood in general so that the learner can appreciate the impact of a cancer diagnosis and its treatment at this age and stage of life.

Aims

This eLearning Webapp aims to promote Teenage/Young Adult Cancer Care within the context of the whole cancer care experience.

Learning Outcomes

The intended learning outcomes are that on completion of this eLearning Webapp the student should be able to:

Describe the physical and psychosocial changes that occur during 'normal' adolescent development

Describe the most common cancers that occur for teenagers and young adults

Describe cancer treatment types and recognise how cancer and its treatments may impact the teenager/young adult with cancer

Acknowledge age specific issues related to communicating with teenagers/young adults with cancer, their families and peers

Recognise specific professional issues when dealing with this patient group such as professional boundaries, legal and ethical considerations

Recognise factors influencing survivorship and or end of life treatment for teenagers and young adults

Working your way through the Webapp

The content is spread out over sections and has been written by experts in the field of caring for Teenagers/Young Adults with Cancer. It is purposefully written in a way that conveys the basic principles of care for this patient group rather than defining or describing specialist knowledge.

Meet Simon and Sumita

To help the learner understand the impact of cancer on a Teenager or Young Adult we would like to introduce you to Simon, aged 14, and Sumita aged 21. Both of these young people have cancer and have blogged throughout their cancer experience. These blogs are available for you to read in full and you will be signposted to aspects of their blog that link to various sections that help you make sense of what the cancer experience can be like for Teenagers and Young Adult. You can switch between the blogs and the content quite easily.

Please note that while these characters are fictional, the experiences presented are drawn from a diverse collection of case studies and you may find some of the blogs emotional as they reflect the reality of cancer for some young people.

Assessment of learning

This eLearning Webapp does not assess clinical competence.

A self test quiz is available at the end of the eLearning Webapp. Upon successful completion of the quiz, the user can download a certificate of completion.

Testicular Tissue Cryopreservation video playlist

Will I be abe to have children after my treatment?

Testes and testicular tissue

Testes (also called testicles) are part of the male reproductive system.

When a boy is born they usually have two testes which contain 'sperm stem cells'. Before puberty, these stem cells are inactive (dormant).

Once a boy reaches puberty these cells, along with their supporting cells, will usually start to produce sperm and the hormone testosterone. Tissue containing sperm stem cells from the testicles can be cryopreserved and stored for future use.

Collection and storage

We usually collect testicular tissue during a short surgical operation under general anaesthetic which we arrange before treatment starts if possible.

During the operation, the surgeon removes a wedge-shaped section of tissue (biopsy) containing sperm stem cells. The tissue is transported immediately to the Oxford Cell and Tissue Biobank (OCTB) in Oxford.

There we carefully preserve the tissue and freeze it using a specialised cryopreservation process. We then safely store the tissue at ultra-low temperatures (around -170°C).

Future use

Testicular tissue cryopreservation programmes are well-established and have been running in a number of centres worldwide for over ten years.

Storage of testicular tissue containing sperm stem cells offers the potential for fertility restoration but is not a guarantee of viable sperm or a resultant successful pregnancy.

None of the patients with stored tissue have yet reached an age when they wish to start a family, so there are no published reports on the use of testicular tissue in humans to date.

Various techniques for use of the tissue have been developed including tissue or sperm stem cell re-implantation and in vitro maturation of tissue to produce sperm.

However, the way that stored testicular tissue could be used in the future may change and progress with new advances and research.

We will discuss all techniques fully when a patient wishes to use their stored tissue to start a family.

Introduction to Palliative Care

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Children's palliative care is about promoting the best possible quality of life and care for every child with a life-limiting or life-threatening condition and their family. Giving families real choice has been key to this approach: a choice of place of care; a choice of place of death; and a choice of emotional and bereavement support.

What is children's palliative care?

Palliative care for children and young people is an active and total approach to care, from the point of diagnosis, throughout the child's life, death and beyond. It embraces physical, emotional, social and spiritual elements and focuses on the enhancement of quality of life for the child or young person and support for the whole family. It includes the management of distressing symptoms, provision of short breaks, care at the end of life and bereavement support.

Palliative care can be introduced at any point throughout a child's life; it is completely individual. Some children may require palliative care from birth; others only as their condition deteriorates. Families may also vary as to whether they wish to pursue treatments aimed to cure or significantly prolong life. In practice, palliative care should be offered from diagnosis of a life-shortening condition or from recognition that curative treatment for a life-threatening condition is not an option. However, each situation is different and care should be tailored to the child.

The Together for Short Lives Charter  was developed with families and sets out 10 key things that children and families should expect from their local children's palliative care services. Based on the underlying principles of dignity and respect the Charter is a key reference to help understand what children's palliative care should strive to look like: trying to ensure that all children and families receive appropriate palliative care underpins all the work that Together for Short Lives undertakes.

Supporting better care

Together for Short Lives is committed to ensuring that children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions receive the best palliative care and support they can. Children's palliative care is provided by a wide range of professionals and services, and we provide information and resources to both families and professionals to help them navigate the system and achieve the best outcomes for children they can. Our website contains a host of information, and you can also contact our helpline for information.

THIS COURSE IS CURRENTLY BEING REVISED. We do not have a date as yet for when it will be completed. Please note the content is still accurate but we are unable to offer any technical support or award certificates related to this course.

Cancer is a key priority, locally, nationally and internationally and caring for children and young people with cancer requires a range of specific knowledge, skills and experience to deliver complex care regimes both within the hospital or community environment.

The CCLG/RCN have designed and developed e-learning resources for health professionals caring for children and young people with cancer across the globe.

This course builds upon the original modules which were developed and delivered through the Paediatric Oncology Nurses Forum (PONF), RCN (Nurse Educators) and Warwick University, however this has now ceased to run.

While all nurses will encounter genomics at some point in their practice, there are particular roles where genomics is highly relevant. As new applications for genomics are developed, the number of these roles is likely to increase.

Rare disease

Rare disease nurses support families affected by rare conditions and help them through the health and social care system. Roles in rare disease are often charity funded. For example, Cambridge Rare Disease Network has rare disease nurses, and Birmingham's Women's and Children's Rare Disease Centre has two specialist rare disease nurses funded by Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity.

There are also nurses who specialise in a particular rare condition, such as:

Familial hypercholesterolemia: These roles usually involve identifying and supporting affected families. You can read more about this work in the North East and Cumbria and the West Midlands.

Monogenic diabetes: Specialist genetic diabetes nurses support patients with this rare form of diabetes and their families, as well as increase recognition and diagnosis of monogenic diabetes among healthcare professionals. More information can be found here.

Clinical nurse specialist / Advanced nurse practitioner

Nurses working as experts within a particular clinical area, for example oncology, cardiology or ohthalmology, will increasingly be trained in the specific management of inherited genetic conditions and targeted treatment within their area. Keeping abreast of rapid developments in genomics is a key part of the role in many specialisms. Here is an example of the work that a clinical nurse specialist may do, taken from the field of renal medicine.

As new initiatives are developed, it is often appropriate for specialist nurses to become involved with service development to help meet patient needs and address patient demands, with the overall aim of improving patient outcomes. The contact that specialist nurses have with patients means they are uniquely placed to take part in such work.

Research

Although advances in genomics have been rapid and impressive, we still have a long way to go. Ongoing research is vital if we are to ensure that all patients can benefit. There are many opportunities to be involved with research projects as a nurse, and you may choose to specialise in this area. The work may involve developing hypotheses, recruiting patients to research projects, training other members of staff, collecting and analysing data, and caring for and communicating with those patients who are involved.

Board representation

Nurses are valued members on many boards and in collaborations between different organisations and charities. You can hear from Dr Christine Patch about her work with the Global Genomics Nursing Alliance and how to get involved in our podcast.

Whole Genome Sequencing: My Family's Journey

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Whole genome sequencing is a powerful and fairly new type of genome sequencing test. One of its most important uses is in trying to find a diagnosis for children who are living without one; children whose condition is believed to be genomic/ genetic but haven't yet had a precise cause identified.

In this film, Claudia Beard tells us about her son, Trent, who has health complications that point towards a genetic cause, but doctors and scientists have so far been unable to find a precise diagnosis. The hope is that whole genome sequencing might help them find it.

This film was developed as part of the programme's free, open-access online course, ' Whole Genome Sequencing: Decoding the Language of Life and Health '.
