Overview
Oncologic emergencies have rapidly evolved in medicine over the last 10+ years. It continues to develop in parallel with new cancer treatments and interventions. In addition to treating complications related to standard/traditional chemotherapies, the development of numerous new cancer treatment modalities presents a whole new field of patient complaints that are just now starting to be seen in emergency rooms across the country. With very few dedicated cancer hospital emergency rooms, patients presenting with cancer emergencies are often inappropriately triaged, diagnosed, undertreated, or often simply referred back to their respective oncologists without resolution of their emergent issues.
This two-day, live virtual course will bring together specialists from across all areas of the cancer treatment spectrum to update and enhance the ability of emergency room providers and staff on how to prepare for the common and not-so-common emergency scenarios with which a cancer patient could present. Each session will include didactic lectures with live Q&A.
Who Should Attend
The target audience for this course includes physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and registered nurses involved in the treatment and management of patients with active malignancies/cancers who present with acute complaints in an emergent setting.
Objectives
- Identify & recognize the most common presenting complaints of cancer patients in emergency rooms.
- Identify current & developing cancer therapeutics with respect to their side-effects and complications.
- Recognize the current limitations and challenges that remain in efficiently addressing the emergent needs of the cancer patient.
