Cancer Complications Management Simulation

Training Overview

Cancer Complications Management Simulation is an intensive, simulation-based training program designed for oncologists, internists, emergency physicians, intensivists, hematologists, oncology nurses, and trainees seeking advanced expertise in recognizing, stabilizing, and treating acute oncologic emergencies. This two-day course integrates structured theoretical modules with high-fidelity clinical simulations, emphasizing rapid diagnosis, toxicity assessment, multidisciplinary management, and prevention of life-threatening complications in cancer patients.

The program begins with foundational modules covering tumor-related emergencies, treatment-induced toxicities, cytokine-release syndromes, febrile neutropenia pathways, metabolic disturbances, spinal cord compression, thrombotic complications, and immunotherapy-related adverse events (irAEs). Participants also explore critical principles including early warning signs, risk stratification, diagnostic optimization, and evidence-based management algorithms.

Hands-on simulation sessions allow participants to manage complete oncologic emergency scenarios using high-fidelity simulators and rapid diagnostic tools. Under expert guidance, attendees practice stabilization, antimicrobial and antifungal selection in neutropenic sepsis, electrolyte correction, airway and hemodynamic management, corticosteroid administration for malignant compression syndromes, targeted toxicity reversal, and escalation decisions for ICU transfer.

Through interactive video cases, scenario-based discussions, and multidisciplinary debriefings, participants analyze real-world oncology complications while refining high-stakes clinical decision-making for diagnosis, stabilization, toxicity grading, treatment coordination, and post-event follow-up. Structured performance feedback enhances clinical reasoning, communication accuracy, and emergency readiness.

By the end of the program, attendees will have developed strong competencies in complication recognition, early intervention, and multidisciplinary coordination—empowering them to manage cancer-related emergencies with confidence across diverse clinical environments.
