Straight Talk with the Expert Surrounding COVID-19 and Your Patients with ILD

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

Dr. Imre Noth summarizes what we have learned through August 2020 about COVID-19 and its implications for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) while providing his own front-line clinical experiences. Talking points include mitigating risks of COVID-19 in patients with ILD, strategies to help patients continue ILD treatment and supportive care, as well as strategies to differentiate post-ARDS fibrosis and ILDs.

This activity is intended for primary care providers, pulmonologists, respiratory therapists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who treat patients with ILD.

Upon completion of the educational activity, participants should be able to:
-Introduce patient communication strategies to mitigate risks from COVID-19 complications
-Identify COVID-19 risk mitigation strategies for ILD patients, including optimal telemedicine practices
-Review emerging clinical data that may inform the differential diagnosis of ILD and COVID-19
