Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex condition requiring comprehensive management that includes appropriate medication therapy and interdisciplinary care coordination. This activity will discuss kidney- and cardiovascular-protective interventions for CKD and examine the roles of risk stratification, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin creatinine ratio (uACR). In addition, considerations for the use of SGLT-2 inhibitors will be discussed, including heart failure status and adverse effects. Approaches to interdisciplinary care coordination for CKD that integrates nephrologists, primary care physicians, dietitians, and other health care professionals (HCPs) will be highlighted.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common infectious illness, particularly among individuals aged 65 years and older, and affect roughly 20% to 35% of women during their lifetime. UTIs contribute to 8 million ambulatory visits and 1 million hospitalizations annually in the US. This podcast will provide an overview of updated approaches to UTI detection, diagnosis and treatment; review common uropathogens; and highlight the distinctive challenges of UTIs related to infection characteristics and complications. Experts will share valuable insights through a discussion of evidence-based strategies to manage and prevent UTIs effectively.

Clinical practice guidelines are used in health care as an educational tool to improve patient care as a potential solution to reduce inappropriate variations in care. Opioid prescribing guidelines provide clear and comprehensive, evidence-based recommendations incorporating current information and practices for practitioners. This activity will examine the scope, impact, key statistics and factors contributing to the opioid crisis and highlight the current recommended opioid prescribing guidelines, their challenges and the role of state prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMP). Strategies to aid in implementing the opioid prescribing guidelines and to mitigate the opioid crisis will also be discussed.

The prevalence of anxiety within the pediatric population has increased over the past decade, and primary care pediatricians (PCPs) are often called on to manage and treat child and adolescent anxiety. This activity will discuss anxiety in the pediatric population, off-label use of medications for anxiety, and the “black box warning,” which warns the public of serious, permanent, and possibly fatal side effects caused by that medication. A treatment plan for a medication-naïve and a refractory, or treatment-resistant, patient with anxiety will also be highlighted.

People at risk of suicide are often seen in health care settings, and health care organizations have a unique opportunity to identify and facilitate suicide prevention. Although there are long-standing clinical best practices, gaps still exist. Suicide Risk Formulation (SRF) is a process by which a clinician forms a judgment about a patient’s foreseeable risk of suicidal behavior based on data collected from a Suicide Risk Assessment (SRA). Risk formulation may indicate that enhanced interventions and increased support may be needed. Treatment should focus on reducing the immediate suicide risk and exploring any underlying mental-health and/or substance-use disorder. This activity is designed to support health care professionals through risk-mitigation situations by providing an advanced continuing education opportunity to improve practice, skills and knowledge.
