Optimizing Patient-Clinician Communication
| Overview / Abstract: |
This CME-accredited CME Snapshot™ educational series is intended for primary care clinicians and other health care providers involved in the ongoing management of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Within each focused activity, an expert pulmonologist and a primary care educator discuss best practices for a specific aspect of managing patients with COPD, including monitoring the disease course over time, maximizing patient function, and individualizing treatment regimens. One activity also addresses patients’ perspectives by incorporating patient-clinician interactions and insights into disease burdens, challenges to good long-term outcomes, and shared decision-making. |
