We are excited to invite you to a GSK Sponsored educational session on Myelofibrosis and Strategies for Disease Management: Key Considerations in Patient Care, occurring on Tuesday, September 10th, 2024, 5pm EST during #ONSBridge. This event will feature guest speaker Dr. Sandra Kurtin, PhD, ANP-C, AOCN, FAPO who is a hematology/oncology Nurse Practitioner at the University of Arizona Cancer Center.  She will be presenting an educational program on the complexities of myelofibrosis disease management.

Myelofibrosis is a rare myeloproliferative neoplasm with common manifestations including splenomegaly, anemia, and marked by constitutional symptoms such as fever, itching, night sweats, and weight loss. During the session, Dr. Kurtin will provide a comprehensive review of the myelofibrosis disease state, including an overview of the diagnostic criteria, key prognosis factors that impact patient outcomes, and an outline of the course of disease progression. In addition to this disease overview, she will share practical strategies for effective management of patients with myelofibrosis, offering valuable insights that can be directly applied in your respective clinical settings. This presentation is a unique opportunity for nursing professionals to deepen their understanding of myelofibrosis and enhance their ability to manage this challenging condition.
