Tony Hung: A virtual integrative medicine program to improve symptoms and decrease hospitalization
Tony Hung, Medical Oncologist and Clinical Informatics Executive at Hartford HealthCare, shared a post on LinkedIn by Robert Daly, Assistant Attending Physician at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, about their recent paper published in npj Digital Medicine:
“Wow – can we make this available for all patients with cancer? A virtual integrative medicine program that improves symptoms and decreases hospitalization and days in hospital!
Proud to have been part of this total team effort. Led by our visionary leader Jun Mao and alongside with MSK esteemed colleagues Robert Daly, Michael Postow, Karolina Bryl, Angela Green, Erin Gillespie, Kathy Panageas, and Ray B.
Quoting Robert Daly’s post:
“Evidence-based integrative medicine has become essential in our management of symptoms for patients with cancer on active treatment.
In this randomized controlled trial, we demonstrated that a virtual integrative medicine program (IM@Home) not only improves symptoms, such as fatigue, but decreased hospitalizations and days in the hospital. This outcome is crucial to our patients so that they can spend more time at home with their loved ones and less time in hospitals/emergency rooms.
Excited to collaborate on this work with Jun Mao Karolina Bryl, Erin Gillespie, Tony Hung Ray B. Michael Postow Angela Green, and Kathy Panageas.”
