Malnutrition is a common pathology, often underdiagnosed, and is associated with numerous chronic diseases. Transversal clinical nutrition units (TCNU) are being implemented to improve the screening and management of malnutrition. The coordinating nurse plays a key role within a TCNU: organizing and coordinating personalized care pathways for malnourished patients, especially those with complex pathologies requiring multidisciplinary care. This article outlines the responsibilities of the coordinating nurse based on the experience of the TCNU established at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital (Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris).

In the attempt to harmonize practices and to create a national CAR T-cells patient follow-up care logbook, the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) worked on the design of a common national care logbook during the eleventh annual workshops of practice harmonization. The purpose of this logbook was to explain the different phases of the treatment with CAR T-cells and to allow useful monitoring for the patient. This logbook can be also helpful for the different healthcare professionals involved in the patient care. This national logbook will provide important information to the patients undergoing CAR T-cell therapy. In addition to the information booklets already in use, the national logbook simplifies patient follow-up by recording various medical appointments and possible adverse events. This work has been based on tools that had already been put in place by different CAR T-cell centers. This national logbook represents a common \"base\" and is prepared in the form of index cards to be classified using dividers in a binder. Therefore, the national care logbook will be adaptable for local procedures and guidelines of each center.

Hormone deprivation therapies play a key role in the treatment of prostate cancer. These treatments require standardized care and regular monitoring. The objective of this work was to review the different hormonal therapies available, their side effects and the role of a coordinating nurse in the management of these therapies. First generation hormone therapy is the standard treatment for metastatic prostate cancer. In the past years, second generation hormone therapies have been indicated in combination with first-generation hormone therapies at different stages of the disease. These molecules are responsible for several side effects that should be monitored and prevented. Thus, after an initial assessment, clinical and paraclinical follow-up are essential. Our center has set up monitoring by a coordinating nurse (IDEC) to optimize the education and follow-up of the patient, but also to provide psychosocial support adapted throughout the patient\'s care path under hormone therapy. This monitoring and information function by IDEC can be facilitated by new digital solutions.

In Europe, two CAR T-cell products, tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah™) and axicabtagene ciloleucel (Yescarta™), were approved in 2018. While these treatments are available for use, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation centers still need to set up a dedicated care process inspired by established procedures in the field. In order to determine necessary resources and actors, each step of the CAR T-cell care process must be planned in advance. This process, implemented by the center\'s coordinating nurse, should be able to be adapted to each center\'s needs. The purpose of this workshop is to provide the organizational basis for such a process so that each center wishing to set up CAR-T cell activity can do so effectively. After detailing the coordinating nurse\'s role, we explain each step of the care process and specify essential additional tests.

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) aims at reducing the length of hospital stays and complications. Everyone has a role to play - healthcare professionals, medical secretaries, administrative staff and patients. A coordinated treatment pathway must be ensured and changes in practices must be accepted.

The medical-psycho-socio-educational characteristics of adolescents and young adults affected by cancer require adapted management. Dedicated programmes and life spaces, as well as the availability of a mobile and transversal multidisciplinary team allow care to be customised. In this context, the coordinating nurse is an essential linchpin in the care team.
