Expert Nursing Insights on Personalized Care for Gynecologic Cancers: Educating and Supporting Patients on the Latest Therapeutic Approaches
Expert Nursing Insights on Personalized Care for Gynecologic Cancers: Educating and Supporting Patients on the Latest Therapeutic Approaches is organized by PVI, PeerView Institute for Medical Education.
Activity Release Date: April 26, 2023
Activity Expiration Date: May 25, 2024.
Activity Description:
As the therapeutic landscape for gynecologic cancers (ovarian, endometrial, and cervical) rapidly evolves, how can oncology nurses effectively support patients and integrate the growing clinical evidence for approved and emerging strategies? Nurses can rise to the challenge with this PeerView Live MasterClass & Nursing Practice Forum, based on a recent live event developed in collaboration with the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition. An expert panel showcases what nursing professionals should know about diagnostic testing, PARP inhibitors, immunotherapy options, and managing potential adverse events. Through the lens of patient case scenarios, they will also share personal reflections on supporting patients throughout their treatment process.
Educational Objectives:
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
• Review current efficacy and safety evidence of immunotherapy and PARP inhibitors in gynecologic malignancies such as endometrial, cervical, and ovarian cancers
• Implement nurse-guided strategies to integrate approved and emerging systemic therapy options into personalized management and education plans for patients with gynecologic cancers, including information on diagnostic testing, therapeutic expectations, safety considerations, and clinical trial opportunities
• Apply effective team-based safety strategies to promptly identify, mitigate, manage, and counsel patients on the spectrum of adverse events associated with systemic therapy for endometrial, cervical, and ovarian cancers.
