Key Management Decisions in HCV

Hello folks, great news, check out this newly released case-based video presentation led by Ira M. Jacobson, MD., over at Clinical Care Options. 

Kick back and watch the good doctor explore the best treatment choice, based on three different case scenarios.

No Questions To Answer

Anyone can view this patient friendly learning activity, no viewer questions, only the audience taking part in the symposium responds.

Topics

Topics include; screening patients, alcohol use, fatigue, diabetes, HCV-related complications, imaging/assessing fibrosis(fibroscan), with a breakdown of HCV regimens used for each case study, including SVR rates. 

After each patient history is presented a short break is taken while the audience responds to the panel question. After the votes are in, or the question is answered, results are discussed, with follow up commentary by Andrew J. Muir, MD and Nancy Reau, MD.

Here is a snapshot of one question:
