Byron Bailey Surgical Society 2021
According to the Journal of Cancer Education, head and neck cancer is considered to be the ninth most common cancer in the United States. However, physicians that take care of head and neck cancer patients may not fully recognize all of the things that are required in order to make for a streamlined multi-disciplinary approach. There are also societal issues that merit further investigation. Many physicians are unaware of the head and neck cancer disparity in the underserved community. This activity will review the current guidelines for head and neck cancer and discuss ways to close the disparities of care delivered for the at-risk population.
Target Audience
This activity is for Physicians, Residents, Fellows, Medical Students and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of otorhinologic patients.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, the participant should be able to:
- Explain the history and evolution of multidisciplinary head-and-neck cancer care.
- Demonstrate the principles of prospective multi-disciplinary treatment decision making.
- Develop a streamline approach to involve multi-disciplinary members for the head-and-neck cancer care team.
