MOC Clinical Fundamentals at AAO-HNSF Annual Meeting & OTO EXPO
Participating in Maintenance of Certification? Join us on Tuesday, September 11, or online, beginning January 2013 for two instruction courses specifically designed to fulfill the ABOto’s Clinical Fundamentals requirement for Part III of Maintenance of Certification (MOC). Most of the Clinical Fundamentals topics are no longer included in the MOC exam, but candidates will be able to meet the ABOto requirements by completing these courses in person at the annual meeting or online and achieving an 80 percent passing score on a post test. Additional topics will be introduced each year. 3715-1 Clinical Fundamentals: Treatment of Anaphylaxis Tuesday, September 11, 3:00 pm-4:00 pm Track: Rhinology/Allergy Instructor: John H. Krouse, MD, PhD This course will review the clinical fundamentals on the treatment of anaphylaxis, including recognition, diagnosis, pathophysiology, and treatment of anaphylaxis in the clinical setting. It will examine risk factors that increase the likelihood of a patient experiencing an anaphylactic episode. In addition, it will provide clinical signs and symptoms that will help differentiate anaphylaxis from other patient responses with which it might be confused (e.g., vasovagal episodes). 3815-1 Clinical Fundamentals: Clinical Outcome Measures/Evidence Based Medicine Tuesday, September 11, 4:15 pm-5:15 pm Track: Business of Medicine/ Practice Management Instructor: Michael G. Stewart, MD This course will review the clinical fundamentals of clinical outcomes measures and evidence-based medicine, research including instrument design, study design, and outcome instrument selection. It will review the results from several outcomes-based clinical research studies in otolaryngology and also the clinical outcomes instruments that are available. Clinical Fundamentals Instruction Course fees are $90 an hour for the hands-on courses. Register online at www.entnet.org/annual_meeting. Additional information is forthcoming regarding online participation in the courses beginning in January 2013.
