Please join us for a rebroadcast of the Non-CME Educational Program that was presented during the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) 2022 Annual Meeting.

 

This program is not sponsored or programmed by the AAAAI.

There is no registration fee for attending this program.

Target Audience

The design of this program addresses the needs of allergists/clinical immunologists, gastroenterologists, and other clinicians involved in the identification and management of patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) or hereditary angioedema (HAE).

Program Description

This Call-a-Colleague™ educational program will guide conference attendees on the identification and management of patients with EoE or HAE. Expert faculty will discuss the pathogenesis, differential diagnosis, and multidisciplinary management of children and adults with these uncommon and difficult-to-treat conditions. Interspersed throughout the program are brief Call-a-Colleague video calls in which faculty consult with a pathologist, dietitian, pediatric gastroenterologist, the Chairperson of the US HAE Association, and a patient with HAE. The consultative calls will provide additional insights into the burdens, diagnosis, and current/emerging treatment of patients with these conditions.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, the participant should be better able to:

  • Describe the pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying EoE and HAE development, with a focus on the rationale for various therapies
  • Comprehensively assess pediatric and adult patients with suspected EoE or HAE to accelerate differential diagnoses
  • Discuss the clinical profiles and trial evidence for current and emerging treatment strategies for EoE or HAE
  • Longitudinally manage pediatric and adult patients with EoE or HAE based on symptoms, recent clinical guidelines, and therapeutic responses
  • Communicate with patients, caregivers, and members of the multidisciplinary team to ensure continuity of care and promote shared clinical decision making
