Boot Camp on Demand 2024 includes newly recorded content from the in-person 2024 Adult Hospital Medicine Boot Camp conference. This video-based CME activity offers up to 20.0 AAPA Category 1 CME credits from infectious diseases, respiratory cases, diabetes management, neurology, nutrition, LGBTQ+ health, hematology and more, all on demand. This is an ideal course if you are new to hospital medicine or if you practice in another specialty but are responsible for the medical management of hospitalized adult patients.

HAPPY PA WEEK! To celebrate, AAPA President Jason Prevelige, DMSc, MBA, PA-C, DFAAPA shares with us strategies to leverage advocacy efforts in the PA profession. Our co-hosts also describe the current crisis in healthcare, and discuss the future of the PA profession in a team-based model, the future of modernized PA practice laws, and modern advocacy efforts that can help bridge that gap in PA practice laws. They highlight how PAs Go Beyond, and are specially equipped to be an advocate for modernized healthcare, and policy change, while reminding us of the essence of our profession.

Updated Guidelines for Chronic Kidney Disease | Managing Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia: An Updated Guideline

This interactive presentation will review the mechanisms of burns, pathophysiology of burn shock, and differentiating factors between 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th degree burns. It will also cover how to calculate total burn surface area, manage burn shock, calculate fluid resuscitation, review burn wound care, and determine when to transfer patients to a burn center.

This session is a fast paced, cased-based, and highly engaging presentation that reviews management of laboratory medicine emergencies including hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, hypercalcemia, and acute disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC). After watching this presentation, participants will be much more confident managing laboratory emergencies.

Silicosis: No Longer Exclusively A Chronic Disease | Serotonin Syndrome: A Rare Yet Crucial Diagnosis

This presentation will provide a visual review of dermatological conditions, both common and uncommon, often seen in the primary care setting.

This series examines how genetics can and should fit in daily PA practice.

This presentation focuses on how to implement genetics and genomic medicine into the primary care setting. PAs will learn key clinical characteristics of rare genetic diseases and how to identify patients suitable for genetics referral. This course will empower PAs to organize and strengthen their history-taking and physical exam to help build confidence for future patient encounters.

This presentation will discuss gene-drug pairs relevant in cardiology, describe how PGx variation affects the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of cardiovascular agents, and review seminal clinical trial data impacting PGx implementation in cardiology. Faculty will review the availability of evidence-based PGx guidelines relevant to the prescribing of antiplatelets, statins, and warfarin and explain how patient factors (ancestry, treatment intensity, concomitant therapy, etc) are integrated into PGx algorithms. Finally, a review of specific challenges to PGx implementation in cardiology, focusing on clopidogrel will be covered.
