A child has been diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma and is being started on a chemotherapy protocol. The mother questions the nurse on why more than one drug is being used as it would seem that using fewer drugs would decrease the side effects.
 
  The best response by the nurse would include the information that: 1. The child's cancer is a severe form and needs additional drugs to remove the cancer.
  2. A protocol is a proven means of treatment.
  3. A protocol is used in children but not adults due to the chemotherapy's effect on growth.
  4. A protocol involves a group of drugs that work in different modes and have different side effects.
