Heart Failure and Endocrinology Are the Foci of the 2015 Clinical Reasoning Series Symposia


Clinical Reasoning Series

The Clinical Reasoning Series is a live educational series that explores cutting-edge, contemporary therapeutic topics and demonstrates scientifically sound clinical reasoning and decision-making. It provides participants with active learning exercises designed to advance their skills and abilities to critically evaluate scientific evidence and clinical trials and effectively incorporate significant findings into daily practice.

From Theory to Bedside: Clinical Reasoning Series has been approved for the recertification of Board Certified Pharmacotherapy Specialists (BCPSs). The 2015 symposium, “Heart Failure: Current and Emerging Management Strategies,” has also been approved for the recertification of Board Certified Ambulatory Care Pharmacists (BCACPs). The symposium will focus on contemporary strategies for optimally managing patients with chronic and acute decompensated heart failure. Sessions will detail and apply evidence that helps inform individual patient care and advance pharmacist services.

From Theory to Practice: Clinical Reasoning Series in Ambulatory Care Pharmacy has been approved for the recertification of Board Certified Ambulatory Care Pharmacists (BCACPs). This year’s symposium, “Novel Agents and Management Strategies in Endocrinology,” has also been approved for the recertification of Board Certified Pharmacotherapy Specialists (BCPSs). It will provide an in-depth analysis of the current evidence on using the various agents recently approved for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity and will discuss the implications on pharmacist patient-care services.

The two symposia will be held concurrently on Saturday, October 17, in conjunction with the 2015 ACCP Global Conference on Clinical Pharmacy, and will deliver 6.0 hours of engaging, high-quality programming and continuing pharmacy education credit.
