The prevalence of haematological malignancies increases in elderly patients. The complexity of therapeutic management makes it necessary to evaluate them using a global approach, namely bio-psycho-environmental. Identifying and assessing their weaknesses are part of the roles of advanced practice nurse (APN). Various tools are used to do this, including the G8 questionnaire, which directs patients towards a comprehensive geriatric assessment, or the Geriatric core dataset, designed to be used during clinical trials and which is more detailed and faster. Could an APN use the latter?
