The new release in ACCP’s popular Pharmacotherapy Self-Assessment Program (PSAP) focuses on evidence-based management strategies for disease states affecting the pediatric population, as well as chapters on management of common conditions and public health concerns in geriatric patients.
Pediatrics/Geriatrics contains four learning modules with a total available 18.5 continuing pharmacy education (CPE) credits. The book content was developed under the leadership of Faculty Panel Chair Christine K. O'Neil, Pharm.D., FCCP, BCPS, BCGP.
Chapters in the first module review new evidence on the management of acne vulgaris and sickle cell anemia. The second module presents the most recent evidence in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and asthma. The third module includes chapters on gout and pressure injury and wound care. The fourth module provides an update on the management of vertigo, as well as a chapter on public health concerns in the aging population.
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.
