Understanding PANS/PANDAS: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Treatment for Rural Providers

When

12 p.m. – 1 p.m., Sept. 30, 2024

The practice and delivery of health care is changing with an emphasis on improving quality, safety, efficiency and access to care. Telemedicine can help you achieve these goals! The Arizona Telemedicine Program and Southwest Telehealth Resource Center invite you to a free one-hour CME webinar on the implementation and practice of telemedicine. CME provided by the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson.

Join us to learn to recognize and manage PANS/PANDAS, severe but highly treatable post-infectious inflammatory brain conditions that can include symptoms in children such as anxiety, irritability, hyperactivity, sleep disturbances, mood swings, eating disorders and urinary problems. Identifying PANS/PANDAS is important as studies indicate that, with proper treatment, symptoms can resolve or be dramatically reduced.
