@VincentRK @mehak_trehan Your tweet about dropping dex helped me change practice in my area and has improved quality of life for many patients

[Rachel S. Rubin, MD @drrachelrubin]

Ok Urologists: It’s #AUA19 time and there are new GUIDELINES about women with recurrent #UTI that include doing a pelvic exam and giving vaginal estrogen. Follow me on this #sexmed vulvar educational thread and change your practice pattern! @AmerUrological

📝 Chronic illness isn’t lived in appointments - it’s lived in the gaps between them. In healthcare we meet people in fleeting moments; for patients and families the story keeps running, day and night.

@Taxkourel @Bethfaiman Agreed, and thank you Tax!

I think IFM 2017-03 and REST are proof positive that neither dara nor isa require any pre-meds (including dex) after 8 weeks - and to be honest I often stop earlier…

@shiv_smith @claire_taylor22 @alisonleary1 @gbtpo See Roy’s post today Shiv who (as usual) gets to the heart of it. The paradox is if we increase CA diagnosis but not workforce numbers how we will hold onto those senior experienced cancer nurses holding on by their fingertips - need to urgently consider retention (+ recruitment)

[CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians @CACancerJournal]

Geriatric oncology has made great strides in improving outcomes for older adults with cancer. In a 2024 #OpenAccess review, @rochgerionc et al discuss the why, what, and how of geriatric assessment for clinicians.

Loneliness and social isolation can have significant psychological effects on patients with cancer -- and even lead to increased mortality. https://t.co/UvxTiOmtHV

We need an RCT to work out whether there is any benefit at all to venesection or whether we can simply see once in clinic and discharge the vast majority of patients who do not have JAK2 mutation.
Well done to @PipNicolson and supported by @HaemSTAR_UK.

💬 #Treatment challenges from a #patient perspective include:

• Burden on daily life
• Emotional stress (toll of chronic therapy)
• Complex treatment regimens
• Lack of coordinated care
