Robert Daly, Assistant Attending Physician at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, shared a recent article by him and colleagues on LinkedIn:
“Evidence-based integrative medicine has become essential in our management of symptoms for patients with cancer on active treatment.
In this randomized controlled trial, we demonstrated that a VIRTUAL integrative medicine program (IM@Home) not only improves symptoms, such as fatigue but decreases hospitalizations and days in the hospital. This outcome is crucial to our patients so that they can spend more time at home with their loved ones and less time in hospitals/emergency rooms.
Excited to collaborate on this work with Jun Mao, Karolina Bryl, Erin Gillespie, Tony H., Ray B., Michael Postow, Angela Green, and Kathy Panageas.”
