First seen Feb 04, 2026 · Last updated Apr 24, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study looks at whether video consultations with geriatric specialists can reduce unplanned hospital readmissions for cancer patients aged 75 and older who live far from major medical centers. About 500 participants will either receive standard cancer care or also have a comprehensive geriatric assessment and medication review via telemedicine. The goal is to see if remote expert support leads to fewer hospital stays and better treatment management.
