Join Siri Rostoft Nicole M Saur, MD , Sean Morrison and me to discuss a fascinating case of #gerionc pt with #RectalCancer and learn how geriatric assessment plays a role in every aspect of decision making from #preoperative period to #EOL . It will be "interactive". #ASCO19

Age disparities among #cancer trial participants are pervasive, worsening over time, and associated with industry sponsorship ja.ma/2Iip6Gm #gerionc #ASCO19

@tanyawildes Has been a privilege to be able to present GOSAFEstudy data from 26 centers at #ASCO19. Reducing functional decline and improving QoL is possible after surgery. Patients‘ centered studies are so crucial European Society of Surgical Oncology (ESSO) SIOG @raaudisio @MSK_GeriOnc Antonino Spinelli Giampaolo Ugolini

The Elderly Are Getting Complex Surgeries. Often It Doesn’t End Well. Nice article on surgery in the older patient. Surgery science needs to understand function and well being after surgery--Not just focus on short term mortality #geriatrics #hpm nyti.ms/2wNFg5f

The #prehab guidance has landed. Full guidance, the evidence review and podcasts all available now via Macmillan Cancer Support here: macmillan.org.uk/about-us/healt…

HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to Isacco Montroni for winning the SIOG Young Investigator Award for incredible his work on the GOSAFEstudy! @raaudisio Giampaolo Ugolini Siri Rostoft Young SIOG Steven D Wexner MD, PhD

Powerful piece in JAGS on the unfortunate consequences of "Monetizing the MoCA". Reads depressingly like what I wrote about MMSE 8 years ago. It's time to break this cycle. We need public, open access cognitive screening tools. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Excellent diagram on end of life care

Important commentary. I especially like: «frailty is a continuum rather than a dichotomous variable»

Yet another NEJM CHF study with composite outcome of death or hospitalization. It is 2020. Why is this considered a NEJM worthy outcome? Why isn't functional status part of the primary outcome? #geriatrics #hpm nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

So grateful for those incredibly important studies performed by gerionc colleagues!
