The National Network of STD/HIV Prevention Training Centers will present a live satellite broadcast -- Caring for Women: Management and Prevention of Cervicitis and Pelvic Inflammatory Disease -- from 12:30 to 3 p.m. EST Wednesday, Oct. 7.
The program will feature discussions of new diagnostic technologies for detecting chlamydia, screening strategies for the prevention of mucopurulent cervicitis and pelvic inflammatory disease, appropriate laboratory work-up, treatment and follow-up for patients with PID, and more.
"They'll be getting cutting-edge information on ambulatory conditions frequently encountered in women, particularly in the primary care setting," said Sylvie Ratelle, M.D., M.P.H., program moderator and assistant professor of family and community medicine at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center-Worcester.
The program has been approved for three hours of AMA Physician's Recognition Award category I credit.
