Abstract
The European Society of Cardiology has developed guidelines aimed at identifying and mitigating risk for cardio-oncology events in oncology patients. Cardiovascular risk factors, cancer type and therapeutic regimen present unique treatment considerations requiring individualized risk assessment. Use of a nurse navigator to initiate triage with pre-visit testing and to coordinate care with the provider ensures patients receive timely treatment.
