Lessons from Real‑World Head and Neck Cancer Nutrition Care

In this video, Speaker: the Dietitian brings nutrition support to life through two contrasting head and neck cancer case studies. Rather than focusing only on guidelines, the session follows real patients through surgery, chemoradiotherapy, severe treatment side effects, weight loss, dysphagia, and recovery. Through these cases, the discussion highlights how timely nutrition intervention can influence treatment tolerance, hydration, recovery, and overall patient burden throughout the cancer journey.

What can you learn as a Healthcare Professional?

Through practical clinical examples, this webinar explores:

  • Managing oral mucositis, dysphagia, dry mouth, nausea, and taste changes during treatment.
  • The impact of early nutrition intervention on weight maintenance and recovery.
  • When to consider oral nutritional supplements, enteral feeding, NGT, or PEG feeding.
  • Current recommendations and controversies surrounding prophylactic feeding tube placement in head and neck cancer.
  • The importance of collaboration between dietitians, speech therapists, oncologists, and surgeons.
