Clinical Pharmacology Review Course, Hosted By ACCP & ABCP

Wednesday, September 11, 2024
8:00 AM – 5:00 PM ET
Location:White Oak B
CE: 5.0

Target Audience:

The Course is appropriate for Trainees and Early-stage Professionals interested in a broad review of the fundamental core concepts and their clinical application within the discipline of clinical pharmacology and more experienced clinical pharmacologists desiring a broad-based refresher of the discipline.



Description:

The Course is a new joint effort of ACCP and ABCP to provide a comprehensive review of topics of broad interest to clinical pharmacologists. The Course will combine presentation of new developments in clinical pharmacology as a method for review of topics associated with the core concepts in clinical pharmacology.

The Course format will be didactic sessions, focusing on core knowledge areas in clinical pharmacology and include clinical management case discussion to enhance problem-solving skills in a format commonly used in board examinations.

Content begins with four talks to highlight the fundamental principles of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and their therapeutic applications to special populations. The remainder of the course includes six talks in selected clinical therapeutic areas that apply the fundamental principles to clinical decision-making for the clinically-minded MD, PharmD or PhD scientist.

Goals & Objectives:

Following the completion of this activity, the learner will be able to:
  • Describe the quantitative assessment and application of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters and their application to therapeutics;
  • Identify special populations and the required modifications of more typical therapeutics to achieve optimal dosing in these patients;
  • Apply clinical pharmacology principles to optimize therapeutic decision-making in a broad array of clinical situations to achieve desired clinical outcomes.
