PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This enduring virtual activity targets healthcare gaps related to the treatment and management of AD in urban communities, impacting outcomes through identifying determinants that impact health in urban communities, implementing strategies in disease severity assessment across varying skin tones, and guideline-based care.
- By addressing these gaps, you can assess whether your approach to AD management through utilization of current treatment guidelines, individualization of care through the “step-up care” approach and strategies for disease severity assessment – could be modified to help close these gaps.
- Expert discussion will guide you in analyzing and identifying challenges to AD management in the urban landscape, and how to navigate proactive vs reactive control.
- You will also be immersed in dynamic animations utilizing a whiteboard platform to memorably highlight key points related to patient-specific factors that contribute to the burden of AD, and essential goals, current and emerging approaches to AD management.
