Sessions

Kickstarting on the first day of the Annual Congress, expect a full range of activities not only for  patients but also learning opportunities for HCPs where they will develop a set of vital skills to engage with patients in a way that makes a measurable impact. EAU23 Patient Day was made possible through an unrestricted educational grant from Pfizer Oncology, below you can find a breakdown of the events, or click here for the programme.

Roundtable 1: Patient-Physician Communication

Doctor-patient communication is vital in the delivery of high-quality healthcare. You will hear from an expert, patients and patient advocates, examples of best practices to improve patient experience, as well as how patient engagement interventions do not only improve health but survival in cancer patients.

Roundtable 2: What is Cystitis

During this roundtable, taxonomy and nomenclature as well as a management plan and the perspective of a patient are all part of the discussion. At the end of the roundtable, delegates will be able to differentiate the types of cystitis and their treatment options

Roundtable discussion: Surviving Urological Cancer and Chronic Disability from Urological Disease

The patient experience is the central focal point when coping with and managing postoperative morbidity, especially urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction following cancer treatment. These are some of the common challenges patients face as part of their treatment, which will be discussed during this roundtable
