Clinical Fundamentals Courses Assist with MOC®
Sukgi S. Choi, MD Annual Meeting & OTO EXPOSM Instruction Course Coordinator AcademyU®, the Foundation’s otolaryngology education source, is pleased to offer yet another online learning opportunity. The two Annual Meeting Clinical Fundamentals courses on the treatment of anaphylaxis and evidence-based medicine are now available as online courses and can be accessed through www.entnet.org/clinicalfundamentals. These courses, topics otolaryngologists should know regardless of their practice focus, are designed for practicing otolaryngology head and neck physicians and surgeons, especially those involved in the Maintenance of Certification® process. Through an agreement with the American Board of Otolaryngology (ABOto), the Foundation now offers a series of clinical fundamentals courses that replace the majority of clinical fundamentals questions on the ABOto Part III MOC exam. These modules should not be confused with the annually required ABO Part II Self-Assessment modules (SAM). Treatment of Anaphylaxis, presented by John H. Krouse, MD, PhD, reviews the clinical fundamentals on anaphylaxis, including recognition, diagnosis, pathophysiology, and treatment in the clinical setting. Evidence-Based Medicine, presented by Michael G. Stewart, MD, MPH, reviews the clinical fundamentals of clinical outcomes measures, evidence-based medicine, and research. Included is a discussion of instrument design, study design, and outcome instrument selection. Each course is roughly one hour long. These enduring materials are also designated for 1 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditTM each. A minimum score of 70 percent on the post-test is required to receive continuing education credit and satisfy the MOC requirement. Proof of successful completion will be forwarded to ABOto on behalf of the course participant. A total of 10 clinical fundamentals topics have been identified by the ABOto for inclusion in this series. All 10 topics will be presented as Instruction Courses at the 2013 Annual Meeting & OTO EXPO in Vancouver. The eight new courses will also be recorded and provided as online courses in January 2014. These will join the nearly 200 self-paced and interactive online courses available through AcademyU. The online courses are $75 each for AAO-HNS members and $100 each for non-members.
