EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
After attending this activity, the participant will demonstrate the ability to:
  • Apply new information on the pathogenesis of HIV and liver disease due to viral hepatitis and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in management strategies
  • Identify antiretroviral and HBV/HCV/HDV antiviral therapies based upon the most recent USPHS, IAS-USA, AASLD, IDSA and EASL Guidelines.
  • Evaluate patients with antiretroviral and/or DAA therapy failure based upon the most recent data presented at the previous EASL, CROI, AASLD, HIV Glasgow, IAC, ICAAC, IDWeek, and EACS conferences.
  • Manage antiviral (HIV, HBV, HCV, HDV and MASLD) drug interactions, side effects, and complications of treatment incorporating the latest pharmacogenomics/kinetics/dynamics data
  • Evaluate and manage patients for pre-exposure prophylaxis therapy to prevent HIV infection
  • Identify management strategies of sexually transmitted infections in patients with HIV or liver disease due to viral hepatitis and MASLD
  • Identify new prevention and management strategies for emerging pathogens such as COVID and monkeypox
