Miami Cancer Institute Oncology Rehabilitation Symposium, 4th Annual: Improving Quality of Life for Cancer Survivors Through Lifestyle Medicine

MIami, FL US
October 19, 2024
 

Live Symposium | 6.5 Cat. 1
Saturday, October 19, 2024
South Miami Hospital Victor E. Clarke Auditorium

As of January 2022, there were an estimated 18.1 million cancer survivors in the US and this number is projected to increase to 22.5 million by 2032.  About 67% of cancer survivors survive 5 or more years after diagnosis, about 18% survive 20 or more years after diagnosis and 64% of survivors are ages 65 or older. Cancer survivors often face a myriad of physical challenges due to various factors such as co-existing medical conditions, age related changes as well as the physical and mental effects of cancer and cancer treatment. These can all have an adverse impact on physical function. Survivors are often overweight or obese, have a decreased level of physical activity, impaired sleep, experience a high level of stress, anxiety, and depression, can have decreased social connections, and can often excessively use alcohol and tobacco products. All of these can adversely affect their physical function and quality of life. Lifestyle medicine is a medical specialty that uses therapeutic lifestyle interventions to address these challenges.

This symposium will provide audience members with practical evidence based therapeutic interventions that can aid the cancer survivor in adopting lifestyle changes that can improve their quality of life.
