The course focuses on the changing nutritional requirements for patients diagnosed with cancer across treatment, during survivorship and end-stage care. As some cancer treatments can affect appetite, patients may be at nutritional risk – the ESPEN guide outlines the three categories for patients at risk: precachexia, cachexia and refractory cachexia. Multi-modal treatments are discussed including dietary counselling and sample meal plans. Nutritional recommendations for minimizing recurrence risk are listed. The GP and dietitian’s roles are outlined for managing these patients. The second section suggests recommended evidence-based nutrition management to improve the nutritional status and quality of life for patients with cancer. Omega-3 fatty acids and other ‘hot topics’ including ginger and adjuvant therapies are mentioned. The impact of chemotherapy on nutrition and gastronomy is explained. In end stage care, nutritional focus is for symptom management and quality of life. Evidence-based guidelines and research support the course content. andlt;grammarly-desktop-integration data-grammarly-shadow-root="true"andgt;andlt;/grammarly-desktop-integrationandgt;

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition affecting ~20% of Australian men aged andgt;40 years.Despite having significant impacts on quality of life, ED often goes undetected and undertreated.Many men may feel reluctant to bring ED up themselves, so by initiating the conversation, healthcare professionals can help normalise the discussion and encourage men to seek treatment – ensuring that ED and any underlying health conditions, such as cardiovascular (CV) disease, are promptly addressed. PDE5 inhibitors remain the first-line therapy for ED and have been available for over 25 years. They have a well-established safety profile, and growing evidence supports their CV safety, thus dispelling the myth that these drugs are associated with negative CV outcomes.
