Overview / Abstract: |
This activity consists of three related modules on the pharmacologic management of patients with ADPKD. The modules follow a patient with ADPKD through her journey from diagnosis to consideration of therapy, initiation of treatment, and risk mitigation. In this 1.5 hour continuing education activity, internationally renowned faculty will provide key insights into assessing candidates for therapy, managing ongoing care, and employing strategies to mitigate risks. Additionally, a patient with ADPKD will provide a first-person perspective on the experience of undergoing treatment. This multimedia activity consists of case studies with text, faculty and patient videos, and evidence-based animated slides. |
