Clinical Dialogues are video-based moderated discussions featuring leading experts providing the latest patient management guidelines. eCase Challenges are interactive text or or video-based cases where PAs are presented with challenging case scenarios a

Join PA co-hosts Martine Altieri, Kim Ketchersid, and Joe Harrison as they discuss current topics in JAAPA CME podcast episodes.

JAAPA CME post-tests are available in AAPA's monthly clinical journal or online.

Post-hospital management of acute kidney injury (AKI) focuses on ensuring recovery and preventing recurrence. This presentation will enhance knowledge and understanding of the key steps to successfully management post hospital AKI including: follow-up appointments, lab monitoring (serum creatinine, electrolytes, and urine output), medication review (adjusting or discontinuing nephrotoxic medications and optimizing doses of other medications), patient education (importance of hydration and nutrition along with signs and symptoms of kidney function decline), and preventative measures such as addressing underlying comorbid conditions, i.e. HTN and diabetes, as well as avoidance of nephrotoxic medications. By the end of the presentation, participants should be able to recognize, manage, and follow up with patients with AKI effectively, ensuring continuity of care and reducing the risk of complications.

Research CME is a series of webinars designed for both PAs and PA Students. This series, formerly known as Research 101 and Research 201, is updated regularly to continually introduce emerging PA/PA student researchers to key skills designed to advance their research goals. Within these lessons, learners can find content exploring topics on why research is important, types of research PAs are involved in, education on the fundamentals of research, and other special topics to enhance participants' skills; specific research methods, data and applications, and strategies for communicating the importance of their work. This series of webinars can be watched in any order as needed.

This course provides a foundational understanding of clinical trial design and methodology, emphasizing the role of PAs in patient recruitment, informed consent, and data collection.

Through this course series, participants will explore the critical importance of research in advancing the PA profession, learn how to navigate and contribute to the evolving National PA Research Agenda, and acquire the tools and inspiration needed to craft a personal research agenda.

This course series equips healthcare professionals and researchers with essential knowledge in research methodology, secondary data analysis, and evidence-based practice. Participants will explore a range of topics, from clinical trial design, quality improvement strategies, and outcomes research, to the effective use of large datasets and advanced data tools such as R.

This course is designed to equip participants with essential skills for effective research communication and professional growth in healthcare, supporting their ongoing clinical, professional, and research development.

This activity will highlight current and historical data pertaining to dermatologic healthcare disparities impacting people of color. Beginning with the basics, hair and skin types will be reviewed along with how physiology contributes to skin and hair health. This session will discuss common dermatologic conditions seen in people of color, contrast how common dermatology pathology presents across the skin spectrum, and provide current disparities experienced by communities of color. For example, despite the fact that there is a higher incidence of melanoma in white patient, Black patients have a higher rate of mortality from melanoma due to delayed, and less accurate, diagnoses. The faculty will also discuss how people of color are underrepresented in medicine; they are under-researched and underrepresented in medical curricula. The session will conclude by highlighting tools to improve early and accurate diagnoses of dermatologic conditions in people of color and supplying strategies to improve provider bias.
