Oncologic emergencies can occur at any time during the course of a malignancy, from the presenting symptom to end‐stage disease. Prompt identification and intervention of these emergencies can prolong survival and improve quality of life, even in advanced disease. This study day has been developed to help clinicians identify common and emerging oncologic emergencies such as febrile neutropenia, spinal cord compression, superior vena cava syndrome and immune related adverse effects and apply evidence based best practice towards their management. This study day is relevant to all health care professionals.
Catering and resources will be provided.
COST: $70 - $120
