Practical Problems in Pediatrics & Specialty Day: Infectious Diseases in Pediatrics
These activities are designed to provide pediatricians, family medicine physicians, sub-specialists, nurses, and allied health care practitioners with an opportunity to work in a partnership to provide the highest level of care for common problems seen every day or more complex diseases with low frequency but potential morbidity. We will bring the latest available evidence that either confirms or will substantially change patient care. We are here to translate knowledge into care for our patients and families.
