Annual Meeting Quality of Care Press Conference - June 1, 2009
Orlando, Fla.-Studies examining new approaches to improving the quality of life of people with cancer and cancer survivors were released today at a press briefing at the 45th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO).
“One of the underappreciated advances in cancer care over the past twenty years has been the improvement in patient quality of life,” said Jennifer C. Obel, M.D. attending physician at NorthShore University HealthSystem, who moderated the press briefing. “We are far better at helping patients cope with pain, nausea and other common side effects of cancer and its treatment. The studies presented today demonstrate continued progress on this front, while pointing to areas where we need to focus our attention, like the ongoing care of cancer survivors.”
