Acromegaly is an endocrine disorder characterized by dysregulated hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH), usually caused by a GH-secreting, pituitary adenoma and leading to an overproduction of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Estimated to have a prevalence of 2.8 to 13.7 cases per 100,000, acromegaly is not as common as other endocrine disorders. However, its incidence is increasing, and it has a significant impact on patient quality of life, with clinical features that include: acral enlargement; facial feature and oral changes; headache; significant fatigue, including daytime sleepiness; hyperhidrosis; oily and thicker skin; weight gain; and arthralgia. Approximately 25 percent of people with acromegaly have elevated blood pressure, and 50 percent have evidence of insulin resistance, putting them at risk of developing type 2 diabetes in future. The mortality rates of acromegaly patients are three times higher than the general population, with most dying from respiratory or cardiac complications.

Detailed, Practical Online CME for Hospitalists

Through a series of one-hour continuing medical education lectures, Hospital Medicine Review covers the clinical complexities, challenges, and complications hospitalists deal with every day. Lectures highlight the hospitalist’s role in co-management of surgical patients, consultation on non-internal-medicine hospitalized patients, and evaluation of inter-hospital transfers.

Authoritative faculty offer guidance for compassionate delivery of prognoses, learning from one’s mistakes, and social determinants of health, and more — all within the hospital setting. Here are just a few of the key-take home points you’ll glean from this online CME program:

• Approach to Preoperative Evaluation, Testing, and Medication Management. Optimize the patient’s medical condition but do not say, “Cleared for surgery.”
• In-Hospital Infections: Diagnosis and Management. Approach to in-hospital infections requires consideration of the host factors, the recent events and exposures, the possible pathogens involved, and the potential for toxicity or drug reactions with each therapeutic option.
• Seizure/Status Epilepticus: Diagnosis and Management. A high index of suspicion is required to appropriately diagnose seizures, epilepsy, and status epilepticus, as there are a variety of manifestations.
• Tele-Health for Hospitalists. Tele-hospitalist medicine has been shown to provide clinical excellence, increase access to care, and contribute to patient and provider satisfaction.

The Cleveland Clinic Hospital Medicine Summit provides a comprehensive review of best practices for the care of hospitalized patients. It features an expert faculty discussing the most common and relevant conditions seen in the inpatient setting. An analysis of new evidence, current guidelines, and management strategies will benefit all physicians, nurses, and PAs involved in hospital practice.

Worth 13.5 AMA PRA Category I Credits™. ANCC, AAPA, AAFP, and IPCE accreditation are also provided with NO POST TEST. Additionally, physicians can earn up to 13.5 ABIM MOC points for this activity.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common monogenic blood disorder, affecting millions of people worldwide and approximately 100,000 Americans. Although it may be found in various areas of the world, SCD predominantly affects individuals of African or Hispanic heritage. It is caused by the inheritance of b-globin alleles that code for hemoglobin S, resulting in an amino acid substitution in hemoglobin’s b chain and clinical disease. Patients with SCD have impaired circulation, and lysis of the erythrocytes contributes to a chronic inflammatory response, causing severe pain and less efficient oxygen delivery. The hallmark clinical features of SCD are hemolytic anemia and painful vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs), which may lead to emergency department (ED) visits, hospitalization, and potentially fatal complications. In one US study, 45% of deaths among people with SCD were related to cardiopulmonary causes, and VOCs alone have been shown to increase the risk of death by 50%. SCD also imposes other significant health burdens on patients: it is associated with a significant reduction in quality of life, malnutrition, the development of mental health disorders like depression and anxiety, loss of work or school days, frequent antibiotic use leading to higher rates of antimicrobial resistance, acute chest syndrome, and stroke.

Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common form of malignancy among men in the U.S. with close to 314,000 new cases and over 35,000 deaths from PC annually. Over the past few decades, the death rates associated with PC have declined, likely due to changes in screening practices and improved treatment options. However, the incidence of PC overall has increased in recent years, and the incidence of mPC at the time of diagnosis is on the rise, accounting for about 8% of those diagnosed. And while patients with local or regional disease have 5-year survival rates close to 100%, that number decreases to 37% for patients with metastatic disease (mPC). Mortality aside, as mPC advances, patients often experience increasing symptom burden, such as persistent fatigue and bone pain, both of which can severely impact their overall quality of life (QoL).

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, with more than 236,000 new cases diagnosed and over 124,000 deaths annually. The most common type of lung cancer, non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), accounts for about 85% of cases and has seen steady declines in mortality over the past several years as improvements have been made in diagnosis, staging, and treatment. In contrast, outcomes for the less prevalent small cell lung cancer (SCLC), which is neuroendocrine in nature and accounts for about 14% of all lung cancer cases, have remained poor in recent years despite improvement in those for NSCLC.

Cervical dystonia is the most common focal dystonia, characterized by involuntary muscular contractions resulting in abnormal head, neck, and shoulder movements in addition to posture that can cause tremor and pain. Early-onset dystonia can begin in infancy, childhood, or adolescence, and it generally progresses from focal to generalized. Adult-onset dystonia usually affects the upper part of the body; the origin of the dystonia determines the risk of spread. Cervical dystonia may appear as torticollis, laterocollis, anterocollis, or retrocollis. It may be distinguished from nondystonic hand tremor and essential tremor by the absence of limb tremor and the manner of neck movement. However, it is more difficult to distinguish from pseudodystonias, resulting in misdiagnosis, inappropriate treatment, and treatment delay.

Lupus nephritis (LN) is a severe manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), affecting over 40% of patients with lupus. It is a major contributor to morbidity, healthcare utilization, and progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The prevalence of LN has increased significantly over time, from 16.8 per 100,000 in 1985 to 21.2 per 100,000 more recently. The mortality rate associated with LN remains high with a standardized mortality ratio of 6.33 compared to the general population. Despite increased advances in treatments, long-term survival rates have not improved significantly over the past four decades. The 10-year survival rate is around 70%, while the incidence of progression in ESRD in LN patients affects up to 13% of patients over time.
