Antibiotic misuse is widespread and has dire patient and public health consequences. National organizations, including the CDC and the Joint Commission, advocate for a formal “Antibiotic Timeout” to reassess empiric antibiotics 48-72 hours after their initiation.

Physicians treating recreational and/or elite athletes that are governed by the World Anti-Doping Agency rules and regulations are also subject to anti-doping policies.  This CME activity provides current anti-doping specific information for physicians and other health and medical professionals.

This course seeks to fulfill the need in the clinical community to better understand medical statistics as it pertains to practicing evidence based medicine, communicating treatment outcome probability to patients and interpreting the results of studies and scientific papers, and in turn improving quality of patient care. This applies to all specialties in various settings of practice.

This course, Dementia and Diversity in Primary Care: South Asian American Populations, will provide information on assessing and caring for Dementia patients, their families, and caregivers in South Asian American Populations.

This course, Dementia and Diversity in Primary Care: Latino Populations, will provide information on assessing and caring for Dementia patients, their families, and caregivers in Latino/Hispanic American Populations.

This course, Dementia and Diversity in Primary Care: African American Populations, will provide information on assessing and caring for Dementia patients, their families, and caregivers in African American Populations.

This CME activity aims to improve the practicing physicians’ and other health care providers’ knowledge about the types of medical errors that can occur and different methods of mitigating and/or preventing these events from occurring by utilizing

This online CME activity provides a practical approach to the diagnosis and management of migraine for primary care providers and general neurologist.

This CME activity provides a practical approach to initiating an internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling procedure after pars plana vitrectomy (e.g. with the aim of closing a macular hole). The theoretical principles of starting an ILM peel are discussed, along with practical tips and techniques. The course director then reviews several cases of ILM peel initiation to demonstrate the principles in action. 

This CME activity is designed for all anesthesia care providers to learn more about residual neuromuscular blockade and neuromuscular monitoring. Objective neuromuscular monitoring is standard best practice to rule out residual neuromuscular blockade and improve patient safety.

The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 that has significant implications for the cardiovascular care of patients. First, those with COVID-19 and preexisting cardiovascular disease (CVD) have an increased risk of severe disease and death. Second, infection has been associated with multiple direct and indirect cardiovascular complications including acute myocardial injury, myocarditis, arrhythmias and venous thromboembolism. Third, therapies under investigation for COVID-19 may have cardiovascular side effects. Fourth, the response to COVID-19 can compromise the rapid triage of non-COVID-19 patients with cardiovascular conditions. Finally, the provision of cardiovascular care may place health care workers in a position of vulnerability as they become host or vectors of virus transmission. We hereby review the peer-reviewed and preprint literature pertaining to cardiovascular considerations related to COVID-19 and highlight gaps in knowledge that require further study pertinent to patients, health care workers, and health systems.

Continual advances in clinical science require pediatricians and family physicians to obtain comprehensive, up-to-date knowledge on a wide variety of clinical issues that may be encountered in daily practice.  This course will focus on clinical management strategies of conditions in dermatology, otolaryngology, emergency care, pediatric surgery, endocrinology, cardiology, neonatology, brain and behavior and gastroenterology.  There will be ample opportunity for questions and cases.

This conference will now be offered as a live-streamed webinar only. Closer to the date, an email with a webinar link will be sent to the email address utilized to register for the event. 

The Care of Pediatric Emergencies, Trauma and Resuscitation conference will cover a wide array of critical care and emergency pediatric care topics that are emergent in nature, and require skills in the initial resuscitation or treatment of a pediatric patient. It will provide educational and professional constructive learning opportunities related to the stabilization and transfer of pediatric patients.

The proposed annual PIDTC Scientific Meeting represents a unique and critical opportunity to assemble experienced and young investigators from all of the major centers in North America involved in the treatment of these disorders, as well as biostatisticians and Patient Advocacy Groups. The Specific Aim of this meeting is to maintain a scientific forum for junior and senior investigators from North America with a special interest in PID to focus on topics with respect to immunobiology, diagnosis and therapeutic corrections of the PID’s leading to hypothesis-based prospective clinical trials that will optimize the care and definitive cure of the disease in children with PID. The meeting is beneficial to those persons interested in the care of patients with primary immune deficiency.

This symposium will provide an introduction to pediatric and congenital echocardiography and the imaging of congenital heart diseases. It takes a unique approach that combines learning cardiac morphology from pathologic specimens and relating this knowledge to echocardiographic evaluation, both preoperatively and postoperatively for patients with congenital heart disease. The main goal is to improve the knowledge and competence of physicians and sonographers who perform and/or interpret echocardiograms in newborns and children with suspected or actual congenital heart diseases and those who perform echocardiographic studies in adults with repaired congenital heart disease.

The 2020 Breast in the West conference aims to enhance participants knowledge and understanding of current best practices in breast cancer imaging. Faculty experts will provide 15 hours of didactic lectures with multiple case examples, and question and answer sessions. Participants will learn strategies and diagnostic approaches from expert radiology and pathology faculty to help optimize their detection and diagnosis of breast cancer with digital breast tomosynthesis, breast ultrasound and Breast MRI. Modality specific presentations will review best evidence based clinical practice, addressing commonly encountered scenarios and highlighting recent clinical/technical developments.

The faculty will incorporate evidence-based data to educate participants in current best clinical practice and to recommend strategies for improving interpretive performance. The performance and interpretation of image guided breast core needle biopsies will be discussed by experts in radiology and pathology, focusing on radiology-pathology concordance including elevated risk lesions. The overall goal of this activity is to help participants optimize their breast imaging practices.

This conference has been postponed. We are actively working to secure a new date and/or venue and will communicate updates as they become available. 

 This course will enable radiologists and technologists to correctly interpret common body MRI exams, to know the underlying principles of MR physics, and to identify and correct image quality issues.  We will review exam protocol strategies, enabling improved communications with colleagues to improve team efficiency.
