New and Emerging Infections
Description
Emerging pathogens are walking into primary care offices faster than ever. Get your most pressing questions answered during this interactive session. Work through real clinical cases, then leave with practical take-homes on identifying new pathogens, prevention, vaccines, and the outbreaks happening right now.
Learning Objectives
- Apply a systematic framework including exposure history, symptoms, and global surveillance to recognize emerging pathogens, including unfamiliar or novel threats.
- Recognize and manage community-acquired antimicrobial resistance with a stewardship lens when using newer oral agents.
- Counsel patients on prevention and immunization, including exposure reduction for tick-, mosquito-, and rodent-borne disease.
