Description

Following this course, the participant should be able to describe the epidemiology and etiologies of various commonly seen diseases within the specialties of Endocrinology and Rheumatology; develop a practical and cost effective approach to the use and ordering of laboratory and imaging tests to derive a reasonable differential or final diagnosis; identify the treatment options available and choose appropriate specialty referral or follow-up. This activity is expected to result in increased confidence in making an appropriate diagnosis and providing effective treatment and referral or follow-up care with the overall goal of improving patient outcomes.

When indicated in the specific objectives, emphasis will be on current guidelines and evidence-based medicine with a focus on diagnosis, treatment and when to refer. Since the specialties of Endocrinology and Rheumatology impact patient populations of all demographics, there is a need for providers to be up-to-date on common Endocrine and Rheumatologic diseases; therefore, this course was designed as a review and update for all practitioners at the level of a practicing physician.
