This activity will consist of a blend of interactive discussions and slide-based presentations which focus on a case study that will exemplify the need to assess for and treat opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in patients with chronic cancer-related pain. The interactive discussion among the panel will provide a comprehensive look at the importance of patient-centered care which focuses on early assessment, ongoing patient communication, and active management of OIC. Oncology practitioners will be introduced to new advances in the treatment of OIC resulting from chronic cancer-related pain.
