Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis & Management Strategies: Clinical Reflections

Program Overview

This interactive online activity will harness the power of reflection by presenting patient scenarios followed by assessment and management questions that explore how patients could have been managed differently and optimally. Through multiple patient encounters, expert faculty will demonstrate how you can prevent repetition of missteps that lead to complications.

Recognize and diagnose the spectrum of multiple sclerosis (MS), from CIS to the various forms of MS (ie, relapsing-remitting and progressive forms) using established, updated clinical, imaging, and laboratory criteria
Appropriately use available and emerging disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) for MS based on their efficacy, safety, and tolerability profiles, as well as their approved or anticipated indications for the various forms of MS
Recognize and manage treatment failure, including switching DMTs
Monitor disease and patient outcomes, including patient adherence, according to recommended protocols
Use shared decision making when prescribing DMTs to improve treatment adherence and patient outcomes
Appropriately manage MS in women of child-bearing age
