80049493 - Inaugural Contemporary Issues in Adrenal Disorders: Case-Based Management Update

Friday, September 20, 2019, 7:00 AM - 5:40 PM EST, Thomas B. Turner Building

Adrenal disorders are generally complex and require expertise for their proper diagnosis and management. Many healthcare providers do not have sufficient exposure to deal confidently with a variety of adrenal disorders due to their rarity and complex nature. If not properly treated, adrenal disorders may result in significant morbidity and lower life expectancy. The objective of the proposed annual adrenal conference is to discuss the best practices for evaluation, diagnosis and management of a variety of adrenal disorders, and review common pitfalls in biochemical evaluation of such patients. This one-day program will place a heavy emphasis on case discussions to review the best strategies for evaluation and management of adrenal disorders by experts in the field. The speakers will share their experience from interesting an/or challenging cases that they have faced. There will be ample time for discussion and questions.

This activity is intended for endocrinologists, endocrine surgeons, nurses and nurse practitioners, physician assistants, as well as internists and family practitioners with interest in endocrine/adrenal disorder.
