About this webinar: Breast radiologist Dr. Paula Gordon will discuss the optimal strategy for achieving early detection of breast cancer. She will also describe the flawed process used in making Canadian breast screening guidelines, impacting millions of women. Patient advocate Jennie Dale from Dense Breasts Canada will look at the inequities in breast cancer screening and surveillance practices in Canada. She will also explore ways to advocate for better screening and surveillance. About the presenters: Dr. Paula Gordon is a Clinical Professor in the Department of Radiology at the University of British Columbia, and has been practicing for over 35 years. She is Founding Medical Director of the Sadie Diamond Breast Program at BC Women’s Hospital, and a founding member of the Canadian Society of Breast Imaging. She’s given hundreds of lectures at meetings around the globe. She received a Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal, and was invested in the Order of British Columbia. She was named one of Canada’s 100 Most Powerful Women by the Women’s Executive Network. Jennie Dale is the Co-founder and Executive Director of Dense Breasts Canada (DBC). She was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2014. Inspired by the successful advocacy and education efforts of similar American organizations, Jennie co-founded DBC with Michelle Di Tomaso in 2016. They teamed up with breast cancer survivors, dedicated individuals, and health care professionals nationwide to raise awareness of the risks of dense breasts and advocate for patient notification of breast density and access to supplemental screening. She is fighting for necessary revisions to the current Canadian Task Force breast cancer screening guidelines, which put women's lives at risk. In 2021, Jennie was named a top 5 finalist in Charity Village's awards in the category of Most Outstanding Impact by a Volunteer.

The Link Between alcohol-and-cancer_ccsn_2024-04-25.pptx
About the Webinar: Alcohol is classified as a Group one carcinogen and is estimated to be one of the top three causes of cancer deaths worldwide. Yet, over 40 per cent of people in Canada remain unaware that alcohol consumption increases the risk of developing at least nine cancers. In this presentation, we’ll look at what is and isn’t known about the relationship between alcohol and cancer. We’ll explore what the Canadian Cancer Society is doing to raise awareness of alcohol as a modifiable cancer risk factor, its commitment to funding world-leading research on this subject, and its advocacy for stronger policies that reduce, and increase awareness about the risk of cancer related to, alcohol consumption. Attendees will be invited to seek more information and/or take action on this important topic. We hope you’ll join us in learning more about cancer risk and alcohol — the most commonly used psychoactive substance in Canada.

Challenges and Potential Solutions for Improving Health Technology Assessment...Canadian Cancer Survivor Network
About the Webinar: Health technology assessment (HTA), the approval process for drugs and healthcare technology, the processes and organizations that support them, such as Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health (CADTH), have evolved over the years in response to changing healthcare system priorities and the need to establish their legitimacy. Don Husereau will provide an overview of current processes in Canada, and highlight their perceived (and real) shortcomings and what can be done to overcome these. He will highlight that some perceived weaknesses (such as review times) are not as bad as they appear while perceived strengths (such as stakeholder involvement) need considerable improvement. He will also discuss other opportunities for HTA to innovate and whether there are current plans to address these.CBoC_IMC_Time to Patient Presentation_CCSN.pdf

CCSN Webinar - EAOCRC FINAL [Autosaved].pptx
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in Canada, with approximately 24,100 Canadians diagnosed with the disease in 2023. The incidence of colorectal cancer has been declining in Canadians over 50 years of age, largely due to population-based screening programs. Recent evidence has shown, however, that rates have been increasing in adults younger than 50 years. Given that younger adults are typically classified as at low risk for colorectal cancer, this epidemiologic shift is cause for concern.
Individuals under the age of 50 now represent a significant number of colorectal cancer cases. The disease is often being diagnosed at a later stage, and tumour characteristics tend to be more lethal. As for what is accounting for the increasing trend, ongoing research efforts focus on environmental toxicities, lifestyle patterns, and the gut microbiome.
In this webinar, we will present an overview of the current evidence surrounding the rising rates of colorectal cancer in young adults and discuss the unique needs of this patient population, through screening, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship. A young colorectal cancer patient will share his lived experience in managing this disease and the impact that cancer has had on himself and his family.

Lastly, some practical strategies to support a healthy diet will be shared.
CCSN_Husereau_2_Nov.pdf
About the Webinar: Genomic testing has already become commonplace in oncology, but exponential growth in more comprehensive genomic tests, other innovative tests and testing approaches in oncology, as well as a number of other therapeutic areas is expected in the coming years.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptx
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites
