GA+M Intervention
Typically 8 domains (cognition, comorbidities, falls risk, functional status, medication use, mood - depression, nutritional status, social support) are examined by a team consisting of a nurse and geriatrician. A GA has multiple benefits and has been recommended for all older adults considering chemotherapy by the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). For a GA to be most useful it needs to be followed by co-management of identified issues.
