Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Course for Respiratory Therapist is organized by ContinuingEducation.com - OnCourse Learning Corporation. Course Originally Released on: 7/10/2000 Date of Most Recent Review: 8/19/2019 Course Termination/Update Date: 8/19/2022 Accreditation: This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 1 contact hour. Description: Roughly 200,000 Americans are diagnosed with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) each year; yet most of them have no symptoms. In the United States, a ruptured AAA is the 15th leading cause of death in men and the 10th leading cause of death after the age of 55. AAAs also run in families. A person carries a 12-times greater chance of developing an AAA if a first-degree relative has experienced AAA. Clinicians in community and acute care settings should look for evidence of this health problem routinely when assessing older adult patients. Lowering the mortality from ruptured AAAs requires informed consumers who are involved in their own healthcare, as well as knowledgeable healthcare personnel to assess, teach, and guide this target group. Objectives: The goal of this continuing education program is to enhance nurses’, radiologic technologists’, and respiratory therapists’ ability to identify characteristic manifestations, signs of impending rupture, and treatment modalities related to an AAA. After studying the information presented here, you will be able to: • Describe three important clinical manifestations of an AAA. • Recognize major signs of impending rupture of an AAA. • Define the process of identification, management, and treatment of an AAA Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.

Lupus Remains Incurable‚ but Research Offers Hope Course for Dietitians is organized by ContinuingEducation.com - OnCourse Learning Corporation Dietetic Diversity and will be held from Mar 13, 2006 - May 21, 2021. The target audience for this medical event is multiple professions, including nurses, dietitians, emergency medical professionals, health educators, massage therapists, pharmacists, and radiologic technologists. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 1.00 CPEU. Course Description: Systemic lupus erythematosus is a complex, incurable disease and chronic condition. It can affect most body systems. There are three main types of lupus: cutaneous lupus erythematosus, drug-induced lupus erythematosus, and systemic lupus erythematosus. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states that it is not a “reportable” condition and that it would be costly to determine an accurate number of people affected. Thus, prevalence has been difficult to determine. It is a challenge to diagnose because there is no lab test for diagnosis. In addition, symptoms wax and wane, and are similar to other conditions. Healthcare providers knowledgeable about the manifestations of lupus, patient education resources, and treatment options can help patients more effectively manage the complexities of their disease. Goal: The goal of this continuing education program about lupus is to provide healthcare providers with information about the manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus and the management of people with the disease. Conference Objectives are : • Describe the three types of lupus • Identify the symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosis • Discuss the importance of patient communication as an integral part of healthcare intervention Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
