Description:
Pancreatic cancer remains the third leading cause of death in the U.S. It is on the rise to becoming the second leading cause by 2030. Pancreatic cancer remains difficult to diagnose and treat, because no clear early warning signs and symptoms exist. Furthermore, many symptoms reported are vague and can be attributed to other, benign causes. Healthcare professionals across disciplines need to know about pancreatic cancer, because patients may present with it in a variety of settings.
Learning Objectives:
After taking this course, you should be able to:
• Name at least three signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer.
• Define at least two treatment options for pancreatic cancer.
• Identify at least two palliative care interventions for pancreatic cancer.
