The EMR is really what we use to drive our ordering process for CAR Ts, but more importantly, it's really allowed us to dive into…nursing considerations for how you can document (on) your patients receiving CAR-T therapy, how we can capture really useful assessments to help drive their care for side effects, for toxicities, especially if the patients start to decline.
