Updates in Pediatric Influenza: When and How to Deploy the Antiviral Arsenal

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

Target Audience
This activity has been designed to meet the educational needs of pediatricians. It may also benefit family medicine practitioners, internal medicine specialists, infectious disease specialists, and other clinicians involved in the care of patients with influenza.

Program Overview
Experts predict that a resurgence of influenza is not a matter of if, but when, as COVID-19 mitigation measures that also suppressed seasonal influenza caseloads lift, and the continued threat of COVID-19 complicates influenza diagnosis and treatment, particularly in children. Because the success of influenza antiviral treatment hinges on early initiation, accurate diagnosis is essential to improving influenza care and outcomes.

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

Distinguish presentations of pediatric influenza from other respiratory viral diseases
Compare clinical trial data for oral influenza antiviral agents for use in children
Develop individualized influenza treatment and prophylaxis plans for children with, or at risk for, influenza based on current data and unique agent characteristics
