Abstract

Date Presented 03/27/20

Cancer-related cognitive decline is not well understood in the oncology population, and evaluation for cognitive dysfunction while inpatient is not routine. The aims of this project are to: (1) identify the prevalence of CRCD in an inpatient hospital utilizing the Trail Making Test Part B, and (2) identify differences between individuals experiencing CRCD and those scoring within normal limits.
