Overview

Join Dr Dan Lenihan (Saint Francis Healthcare System, US), Dr Joe Carver (University of Pennsylvania, US) and colleagues Dr Tormod Nilsen and Dr Sara Hassing Johansen (both from The Norwegian School of Sport Sciences, Norway) for an insightful webinar exploring the powerful effects of aerobic exercise on cardiorespiratory fitness. 

This session will delve into how aerobic activity impacts cardiorespiratory fitness, cardiovascular risk factors and the often-overlooked late effects experienced by long-term breast cancer survivors, highlighting crucial clinical implications for healthcare professionals and those supporting survivors.

The partnership combines Radcliffe’s rapidly growing global community and expertise in delivering the most innovative virtual events, with the knowledge and experience of IC-OS’s members, to curate broadcasts that challenge current practice and have real-world patient benefits.

This webinar is for cardiologists, haematologists, oncologists, nurse practitioners, nurses and pharmacists.

The International Cardio-Oncology Society is a committed group of professionals throughout the world who are striving to protect the cardiovascular health of all patients who are undergoing cancer therapy. By optimising the cardiac status of patients with cancer before, during and after their treatment, IC-OS is collectively improving the overall outcomes including survival and quality of life. IC-OS aims to provide the latest scientific and clinical education and research for anyone treating patients with cancer in the hopes of enhancing cardiovascular protection.

This is an independent activity run by the International Cardio-oncology Society (ICOS) and co-produced in collaboration with Radcliffe Cardiology. IC-OS has been provided support to deliver this webinar series by AstraZeneca, BeiGene, BMS/Pfizer Alliance, Eli Lilly and Sumitomo Pharma through an unrestricted educational grant to cover organisational costs and has had no input into the agenda or content of this educational activity. Radcliffe Cardiology has received no industry funding.
