Learn MoreAvailable for 1.50 hours of CPE creditActivity Number: 0217-0000-25-118-L01-PActivity Type: An Application-Based ActivityThe management of common infectious diseases across the spectrum of care continues to rapidly evolve. Several key updates to clinical practice guidelines including community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and uncomplicated urinary tract infections (uUTI) and emerging literature have been published recently. Several clinical practice dogmas in infectious diseases have also recently come under question and evidence continues to expand related to shorter versus longer durations and intravenous versus oral therapy for many infectious diseases. This program will highlight significant changes in these areas, focusing on treatment strategies and evidence surrounding clinical conundrums in infectious disease. This session aims to equip pharmacists with a well-rounded understanding of these key updates in common infectious diseases across care settings by incorporating interactive learning techniques and case studies.
Learning Objectives1. Summarize major guideline updates and new clinical trials for common respiratory and urinary tract infections.
2. Determine appropriate duration of antibiotics for common respiratory and urinary tract infections based on clinical trial evidence.
3. Identify candidates for oral versus parenteral antibiotics in common respiratory and urinary tract infections based on clinical trial evidence.
4. Design appropriate therapeutic regimens for the treatment of common respiratory and urinary tract infections.
