When multiple myeloma patients undergoing chemotherapy suffer from multiple symptom clusters, nurses should prioritise relieving the pain symptom cluster to improve their health-related quality of life. When drawing up and providing interventions, nurses should focus on the correlation among symptoms rather than single symptom. By relieving one symptom in a given cluster, other symptoms within the same symptom cluster may also be relieved.
