January 17th, 2025 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ Hours
Description
Cancer cells tend to grow fast, and chemo drugs kill fast-growing cells. But because these drugs travel throughout the body, they can affect normal, healthy cells that are fast-growing, such as blood cells and the cells lining the mouth, stomach, and intestines. Some chemotherapy can damage cells in the heart, kidneys, bladder, lungs, and nervous system.
Managing Complications of Chemotherapy is the subject of this week’s OSU East Hospital Grand Rounds. Edmund Folefac, MB BCh, medical oncologist at The Ohio State University Medical Center, is the expert panelist in this MedNet 21 webcast moderated by Shengyi Mao, MD, Associate Professor of Internal Medicine, and Medical Editor of MedNet 21. This presentation will be available as an in-person presentation in Wallace Auditorium.
