Course Description and Objectives

Pre-Conference: Birthmarks and Pediatric Dermatologic Disease

The field of vascular anomalies is complex and rapidly evolving. It comprises a range of problems including hemangiomas and other vascular tumors and vascular malformations. This CME activity will provide participants with an update on the basic science, diagnosis and treatment of vascular anomalies. In addition, current management strategies for common pediatric skin disorders will be addressed during the afternoon session.

The Pre-Conference is intended for practitioners who diagnose, manage and treat vascular anomalies and/or dermatologic disease in infants, children and adolescents including primary care physicians (pediatricians and family physicians), pediatric specialists (dermatologists, radiologists, hematologists/oncologists, surgeons, plastic surgeons, otolaryngologists) and interested allied health professionals.

At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:
  • Identify the classification and clinical features of specific vascular anomalies.
  • Discuss current therapeutic options for vascular anomalies including hemangiomas and vascular malformations of the eye, head, neck and airway.
  • Describe treatment strategies for various pediatric dermatologic diseases including moles, melanoma, warts, molluscum contagiosum, acne and atopic dermatitis.

16th Annual Pediatric Update

Designed for pediatricians, family physicians, PNPs, nurses and interested allied health professionals, the 16th Annual Pediatric Update will highlight recent advances in pediatrics in addition to presenting practical up-to-date information on a variety of important clinical issues encountered in daily practice.

Lectures with question and answer sessions, seminars and workshops will afford participants the opportunity to discuss practice dilemmas with the expert faculty.

At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:
  • Describe current treatment strategies for various pediatric diseases and disorders including bronchopulmonary dysplasia, asymptomatic hematuria and proteinuria, headaches, menstrual disorders, ADHD, and angular and rotational deformities of the lower limbs.
  • Summarize recent advances and updates in vaccines, probiotics, and obesity management.
  • Identify evaluation and management options for selected pediatric problems such as endocrine disorders, elevated liver enzymes, obstetrical brachial plexus palsy, ophthalmic disorders, food borne zoonosis, congenital cardiac anomalies, insomnia, and developmental and behavioral issues.
  • Apply enhanced skills in one of the following: neonatal circumcision, pediatric resuscitation, interpreting the CBC, or examining a child with upper and lower extremity pain.
