Cachexia: A Guide for Providers and Advocacy Organizations

This guide explains how our patient engagement tool, "Have You Heard About Cachexia," was developed. It also explains how to use the tool to talk about cachexia with patients and caregivers. (The patient engagement tool is available for download below.)

This guide also summarizes the latest research on cachexia, its symptoms, and challenges in diagnosing and treating cachexia. It also features a comprehensive glossary of terms defined using accessible and plain language standards.
