Bone Health Assessment in Men On Androgen Deprivation Therapy For Prostate Cancer: A Nurse Practitioner-Led Quality Improvement Protocol

摘要

Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) causes bone loss. Despite this, there is substantial variability in clinical practice related to bone health prevention and treatment for men with prostate cancer receiving ADT. This quality improvement project facilitated consistency in providing evidence-based care for bone health in men with prostate cancer on ADT at a private urology clinic.
