CONFERENCE DESCRIPTION: Keeping up with medical breakthroughs and maintaining physicians' fund of knowledge can be time-consuming, especially for rare medical conditions that general pediatricians do not manage daily. These patients are generally handled by sub-specialists, leading to potential knowledge gaps. This activity is intended to revisit and provide up-to-date information on disorders affecting growth, bone, and other endocrine disorders. By doing this, we aim to improve medical care for children with potential growth disorders and prevent consequential growth disorders. Additionally, this activity may serve as a referral resource for our community.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

This course is designed for general pediatricians, pediatric endocrinologists, physician assistants, nurses, medical students, fellows, and residents.

ACCREDITATION STATEMENT:

This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the Human Growth Foundation, The Tennessee Medical Association, and HealthProMatch. The Tennessee Medical Association is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

TMA designates this live meeting for a maximum of 2 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
