Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is organized by American College of Physicians (ACP) and will be held during Apr 18, 2018 - Aug 01, 2020. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits and MOC Points.

Conference Description :
Osteoporosis is a common systemic skeletal disorder resulting in bone fragility and increased fracture risk. However, management of osteoporosis and fracture prevention strategies are often not addressed by primary care clinicians, even in older patients with recent fractures. Evidence-based screening strategies will improve identification of patients who are most likely to benefit from drug treatment to prevent fracture. In addition, careful consideration of when pharmacotherapy should be started and choice of medication and duration of treatment will maximize the benefits of fracture prevention while minimizing potential harms of long-term drug exposure.

Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
