Contemporary Management of Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Case-based Approac
| Overview / Abstract: |
This modular continuing education activity provides an update on the epidemiology, monitoring, and treatment of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Diane Kamen, MD, and Anca Askanase, MD, examine the current research on demographic groups with an increased risk of SLE and its severe complications, including lupus nephritis (LN). They also review the application of the most current treatment goals and classification criteria to speed diagnosis and guide disease activity monitoring. The expert faculty provide guidance on the integration of newly approved treatments into the EULAR treatment algorithms for SLE, and how these treatments can be used for patients with LN. Two case studies are utilized to illustrate the application of key concepts. |
