What REALLY makes a good oncologist? in @JCO_ASCO After 10 years and 203 JCO essays, one thing became clear: expertise alone isn’t enough. Patient-centered care. Clear, authentic communication. Emotional intelligence. And the harder work Showing up again and again. Openness to uncertainty. Carrying the burden of cancer care. Continuous growth. Clinical competence is expected Human connection makes the difference. Science treats disease. Presence treats fear. ascopubs.org/doi/pdf/10.1200… @OncoAlert

Mirtazapine for breathlessness? Evidence does not support its use. In a similar fashion to using Clonazepam for pain it is probably helpful in a small number of people who have anxiety and poor sleep associated with their symptoms. thelancet.com/journals/lanre…

Terminal agitation - A palliative care thread 🧵 This is not a thread on delirium near end of life. Although severe delirium can lead to agitation, almost all delirium in the last days of life can be managed with non-pharmacological support or small doses of medicine

New therapeutic options don’t come along often in palliative care. When they do there is often understandable hesitancy to introduce these into practice. Clonidine is a good example of this so I wanted to explore more with this thread 🧵 👇
Clonidine in palliative care- A thread 🧵 Clonidine is not a new drug. Developed in the 1960’s it has been used to manage hypertension, hot flashes, migraine and even ADHD. Use perioperatively and in ITU for pain relief has been fairly common inc via spinal and epidural route
