WebcastFaculty
OVERVIEW
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Adults: Making the Diagnosis and Optimizing Treatment Part 2 - Making the Diagnosis is organized by National Association for Continuing Education (NACE) and will be held during Aug 01, 2016 - Jul 31, 2018.
The target audience for this medical event is Primary Care Providers. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Conference Description:
In this second of a two-part series on Diagnosing and Optimizing Treatment for ADHD, primary care clinicians will learn to choose and dose ADHD medications appropriately for symptom improvement, determine improvement levels through Measurement-Based Care, recognize side effects that would warrant medication change or adjustment, and refer patients appropriately for psycho-social support. Presented by a family physician who diagnoses and treats ADHD full-time, learners will walk away with a confidence in handling ADHD as we currently do anxiety, depression, and associated medications.
Conference Objectives are:
• Choose confidently between stimulant and non-stimulant medication for a particular patient.
• Titrate medication dosage up to an optimal level in each patient over an appropriate time period.
• Refer to a third party for adjunctive and appropriate psycho-social support.
• Follow an ADHD patient’s improvement with Measurement-Based Care.
• Identify adverse side effects of medication that would warrant a change to a different medication.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
