Pain that is intermittent or constant lasting for 3-6 months, present in the pelvic or abdominal region, occurring throughout the menstrual cycle, and without any association with pregnancy is chronic pelvic pain.

Introduction to Cardiac Arrhythmias
  • Cardiovascular Diseases
  • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™
$0.00
Arrhythmia entails a broad spectrum of disorders of heart rate and rhythm abnormalities. Arrhythmia is broadly categorized into bradyarrhythmias and tachyarrhythmia based on the heart rate. They are further divided according to the origin, means of transmission, and syndromes associated with it. Patients with an arrhythmia may exhibit a broad spectrum of clinical presentation from being entirely asymptomatic to sudden cardiac arrest.
Pediatric DKA
  • Internal Medicine & Subspecialties
  • Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine
  • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™
$0.00
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a serious complication of relative insulin deficiency affecting primarily type-1 diabetes mellitus (DM). DKA can occur in type-2 DM when insulin levels fall far behind the body’s needs. DKA is so named due to high levels of water-soluble ketone bodies (KBs), leading to an acidotic physiologic state. Ketone bodies, while always present in the blood, increase to pathologic levels when the body cannot utilize glucose: low blood glucose levels during fasting, starvation, vigorous exercise, or secondary to a defect in insulin production.
Human Trafficking: Informing Healthcare Practice
  • EMS Medical
  • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™
$0.00
Human trafficking is a major public health problem, both domestically and internationally. Healthcare providers are often the only professionals to interact with trafficking victims who are still in captivity. Recent studies have demonstrated that up to 50% of trafficking victims in the United States were seen by healthcare professionals while in captivity and were not identified. This course will help guide healthcare professionals to identify human trafficking victims when they present in the clinical setting. 
Updates in Osteoporosis Management
  • Endocrinology
  • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™
$0.00
Osteoporosis is defined as low bone mineral density caused by altered bone microstructure, ultimately predisposing patients to low-impact, fragility fractures. Osteoporotic fractures lead to a significant decrease in quality of life, with increased morbidity, mortality, and disability. The aging of the American population is expected to triple the number of osteoporotic fractures. This activity describes the evaluation and management of osteoporosis and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in improving care for affected patients. 
Lung Cancer Screening Review for General Practitioners
  • Oncology
  • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™
$0.00
Worldwide lung cancer has the highest rate of mortality and is the leading cause of cancer deaths. The incidence of lung cancer is approximately equal to its mortality. There are approximately 1.8 million new cases of lung cancer every year globally and over 1.6 million deaths secondary to this. The survival rates for lung cancer are abysmal, in the United States the overall 5-year survival is as low as 18% which is in sharp contrast to the high rates of survival for breast, colon, and prostate cancer at 90, 65 and almost 100% respectively.
What's new in Pediatric Minimally Invasive Surgery Techniques
  • Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine
  • Surgical Specialties
  • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™
$0.00
The field of minimally invasive surgery in newborns and infants is relatively new. Increasing familiarity with MIS techniques for the pediatric patient is of vital importance. The goal of this activity is to update  surgeons, as well as allied health professionals on the latest advances in MIS surgical techniques. This Activity will provide a comprehensive overview of the updates in the field of pediatric minimally invasive surgery.  
Vascular Anomalies: Infantile Hemangiomas
  • Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine
  • AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™
$0.00
This activity has been designed to review the two categories of vascular anomalies—vascular tumors and vascular malformations. The most common benign vascular tumor is the infantile hemangioma. Vascular malformations are capillary malformations, venous malformations, lymphatic malformations, arteriovenous malformations and combinations of the above. The activity will review a clinical approach to the evaluation and initial management of hemangiomas and vascular anomalies.
