The new release in ACCP’s popular Pharmacotherapy Self-Assessment Program (PSAP) focuses on evidence-based management strategies for disease states affecting the pulmonary system and selected emergency syndromes. Additional chapters focus on alternate routes of drug administration and practice issues germane to the care of patients in the emergency settings.
Pulmonary and Emergency Medicine contains three learning modules with a total available 15.5 continuing pharmacy education (CPE) credits. The book content was developed under the leadership of Faculty Panel Chair Michael C. Thomas, Pharm.D., BCPS, FCCP.
Chapters in the first module review new evidence on the management of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis, and pulmonary embolism. The second module presents the most recent evidence in the treatment of allergy, angioedema, and selected topics in toxicology such as bleeding associated with direct oral anticoagulants, and opioid overdose. The third module includes chapters on alternate routes of drug administration and practice management in the emergency department.
Each PSAP release comes in two full-color online formats: (1) interactive PDFs you can save to your desktop or print; and (2) an e-media version you can view on an e-reader, tablet, iOS or Android smart phone. Each release also includes the popular PSAP Audio Companion, audio MP3 files that can be downloaded to a player or burned onto a CD. A one-color softbound print book is available for an added fee.
All PSAP chapters are fully referenced, with clickable hyperlinks to literature compilers such as PubMed. Other links provide ready access to clinical practice guidelines, official recommendations, and patient assessment tools. Graphic features focus on pivotal studies, patient care scenarios, and take-home points that can be readily integrated into clinical practice.
