Caitríona Duggan Presented Two Rapid e-posters at the MASCC/ISOO Annual Meeting

Caitríona Duggan, PhD Candidate of Vascular access devices for systemic anti-cancer therapy at the University of Galway, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“My MASCC2025 Experience in Seattle!

I had the opportunity to present two rapid e-posters at the MASCC/ISOO Annual Meeting—a hub of innovation in supportive cancer care! Here’s a snapshot:

  • 1st Poster: Cochrane Systematic Review Protocol on Vascular Access Devices (VADs) for prolonged SACT.
  • 2nd Poster: PRACTICE – Promoting a Research Agenda for Cancer Treatment with Intravenous Catheters in Europe.

Why It Matters:

  • 70% of systemic anticancer therapy (SACT) is delivered intravenously.
  • Choosing the right VAD isn’t just a clinical decision—it’s vital for treatment success, patient safety, and quality of life!

Huge Thanks to:

  • My supervisor Peter Carr and co- supervisor Orlaith Hernon
  • Irish Cancer Society for their funding and local support HSE West North West.
  • The brilliant Co-Authors Nikolina Dodlek, Christina H. Ruhlmann, Raymond Chan & global nurse leaders Darcy Burbage, Jessica MacIntyre I connected with—your insights are invaluable!

Grateful to contribute to this vital conversation!”
