Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Casey M Hay"
- Casey M Hay's research primarily focuses on improving the quality of care for gynecologic oncology patients, particularly in understanding factors that influence treatment tolerance, symptom management, and the integration of palliative care in practice.
- Notable findings include the identification of phenotypic frailty as a predictor of chemotherapy tolerance in older patients, and a recognition of the need for better sexual health services for gynecologic cancer patients.
- Further, Hay's work reveals patterns of health care utilization among these patients and indicates that gynecologic oncologists' perceptions significantly affect referrals to outpatient palliative care, highlighting systemic barriers to optimal patient support.
