This activity will provide participants with insight into newer approaches that effectively integrate standard interventions into management plans tailored to the individual’s particular symptoms, review the value of pulmonary rehabilitation, and outline the effective evaluation of therapeutic responses.

This activity will review the symptoms and signs of SM, provide an overview of new and current therapies and identify SM guideline updates. The value of an interdisciplinary team–based approach along the continuum of care for affected individuals will also be discussed as a definitive step toward optimizing outcomes. 

Throughout these activities, faculty will discuss the keys to optimize the management/benefits of individuals undergoing organ or blood/marrow transplant. Participants will learn about advances, trends and updates on relevant topics within this field.

This activity will provide an overview of geriatric and frailty assessment tools that can assist in guiding cancer- and transplant-related decision making through the risk stratification of older individuals before therapy is initiated. Data surrounding the relationship among increased age, geriatric- and frailty-assessment results, and disease outcomes will also be explored. Key considerations in how to best incorporate these sometimes time-intensive assessments into practice will be outlined, along with discussion of how interprofessional collaboration among members of the health care team in the creation of care plans can facilitate quality care.
