OVERVIEW

The Alloimmune Disorders of Pregnancy: Optimizing Fetal Outcomes Through Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment is organized by Omnia Education.

Release Date: 04/01/2025
Expiration Date: 04/01/2026

Description:
The management of alloimmune disorders of pregnancy, notably HDFN and FNAIT, has often centered on maternal immunosuppression using IVIG and/or corticosteroids, direct inutero therapy such as fetal intravascular transfusion, preterm delivery as indicated, and/or treatment of the newborn. A novel form of therapy is now emerging that targets the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), with the potential to revolutionize the management of these diseases. Join Drs. William Goodnight and Kara Markham as they evaluate current and emerging approaches to diagnosing and managing HDFN and FNAIT.

Learning Objectives:
After participating in this educational activity, participants should be better able to:

  • Explain the pathophysiology underlying fetal/newborn alloimmune disorders, with a focus on hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN), fetal/neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT), and fetal/neonatal neutropenia (NAIN) 
  • Identify current diagnostic and treatment regimens for HDFN, FNAIT, and NAIN
  • Explain the role of the neonatal Fc receptor pathway as a therapeutic means to address HDFN and FNAIT
