Sarah Powell-Brett (@DrSfpb) and Rupaly Pande (@rupaly_pande) @uhbtrust explore what is being done to improve outcomes for patients with resectable pancreatic cancer and the impact fast track pathway has on recovery #pancreaticcancer #improvepanc

Listening to @nigeljamieson sharing the @precisionpanc programme with the @ImprovePanc group working collaboratively to accelerate and share change and learning
“There is no end point to this, it is just continuous improvement” Daren Suber, Consultant Surgeon @ELHT_NHS explores how to improve the pathway to increase detection rates of pancreatic cancer #improvepanc #pancreaticcancer
Sadia Anwar, Consultant Respiratory Physician @nottmhospitals discusses what impact the implementation of a new lung cancer pathway is having on patient outcomes and what we can learn from this systematic pathway approach #lungcancer #improvepanc
John Broggio, Cancer Analytical lead at the National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service @PHE_uk shares how data from pancreatic cancer patients is collected, how it can be shared with researchers and how it can be used to improve outcomes #pancreaticcancer #improvepanc
Showing the potential benefits of technology, Antiopi Ntouva shares existing literature and knowledge around the use of apps in improving patient care - discussing both the limits and impact this technology may have on pancreatic cancer patients #pancreaticcancer #improvepanc
Discussing apps in measuring recovery after surgery with @liveRPancSurg - how might this technology enable earlier diagnosis and treatment and does remote monitoring reduce the clinical impact of post-discharge complications after surgery? #pancreaticcancer #improvepanc
Discussing the diverse roles of Upper GI Cancer Nurse Specialists and Support Workers - challenging how services reflect the needs of patients and the need to create networks for navigators so they are supported #pancreaticancer #improvepanc
Thank you Donna, Upper GI Cancer Nurse Specialist @WorcsAcuteNHS and Jo, Macmillan Upper GI Cancer Support Worker @UHNM_NHS for sharing your experiences, really insightful to learn about what you do to improve outcomes for pancreatic cancer patients #PancreaticCancer #improvepanc

NEW CAMPAIGN We won't wait any more. We won't accept 'maybe later'. UK governments must take action NOW. Let's make pancreatic cancer a national priority. Sign our new petition - Demand Survival Now-> demandsurvivalnow.pancreatic… <-#DemandSurvivalNow

Neoadjuvant therapy for pancreatic cancer in a nutshell - two patients in two days. First received one cycle of FOLFIRINOX over 4 months since diagnosis due to delays in pathway, complications of biliary drainage and now has ascites and ca19-9 over 6000. The other completed FOLFI
Vital that pancreatic cancer research progresses to improve care and outcomes for patients. Lots of work to be done, and this article highlights the that improvements are possible, but we need to accelerate the change bbc.co.uk/news/health-496615…
