COVID-19 and Rheumatology Care: How Does it Impact My Patients?

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

Already facing unprecedented changes in approaches to patient care, rheumatology practices must now navigate the unfamiliar landscape of COVID-19 and translate rapidly evolving evidence into routine clinical practice. And while every day brings new data and guidance on best practices for managing rheumatology patients during a pandemic, it is often the perspectives of our colleagues in the field that provide the dimension and context needed to interpret the latest data and guidance.

This CME-certified session tackles the tough questions surrounding COVID-19 and rheumatology care with discussion on:
• Impact of immunomodulatory therapies on COVID-19 infection risk
• Vaccine considerations
• Telemedicine
• Long-hauler symptoms post-acute COVID-19 illness
