Alder, PhD, discuss how to increase awareness of the influence of telomere dysfunction on health and disease, define the most common clinical manifestation of patients with telomere-mediated disease, and more. http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/4236/specialties/pulmonology/telomere-biology-and-lung-transplantation-why-it-s-not-always-about-the-lung Mon, 05 Jun 2023 10:36:37 EST http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/4236/specialties/pulmonology/journey-to-lung-transplant In this CME, Chadi A. Hage, MD, discusses how to recognize the current trends in lung transplantation in the U.S., explains the proper timing and criteria of referring patients with end stage lung disease for lung transplant, and more. http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/4236/specialties/pulmonology/journey-to-lung-transplant Tue, 31 Jan 2023 16:19:30 EST http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/1573/courses/diagnosis-and-treatment-of-obesity-hypoventilation-syndrome Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is a respiratory disorder resulting in multisystem dysfunction. This program will review the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and mortality of this disorder. Current treatment recommendations as put forth by the American Thoracic Society Assembly on Sleep and Respiratory Neurobiology will be presented, including a comprehensible treatment algorithm. http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/1573/courses/diagnosis-and-treatment-of-obesity-hypoventilation-syndrome Wed, 14 Dec 2022 11:25:53 EST http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/1573/courses/recognizing-and-treating-tracheobronchomalacia "Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) is an under-recognized cause of shortness of breath, recurrent respiratory infections and chronic coughing. It involves collapse of the main airways, due to a weakness of the cartilage and/or floppiness of the posterior membranous wall. The activity will inform physicians and advanced practitioners about the importance of a multidisciplinary approach in the management of TBM, from diagnosis to treatment. We emphasize the need of reserving surgery to severely symptomatic patients who fail medical therapy, and the importance of objective long-term follow-up of this challenging condition." http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/1573/courses/recognizing-and-treating-tracheobronchomalacia Tue, 13 Dec 2022 08:40:48 EST http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/4236/specialties/heart-and-vascular/transcatheter-pulmonary-valve-replacement-in-congenital-heart-disease In this CME presentation, Bryan H. Goldstein, MD, describes the diagnostic skills needed for identifying adults with congenital heart disease so that mortality and morbidity can be reduced in a vulnerable cardiovascular population. http://www.broadcastmed.com/pulmonology/4236/specialties/heart-and-vascular/transcatheter-pulmonary-valve-replacement-in-congenital-heart-disease Mon, 12 Dec 2022 12:06:56 EST
