PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Allergic Rhinitis (AR) in children and adolescents is a commonly misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated condition. AR and AR with conjunctivitis (ARC) exerts significant effect on quality of life and has deleterious effects on sleep, academic performance, family functioning, and involvement in outdoor activities. Fortunately, there have been advances in the diagnosis and treatment of AR and ARC that support improved diagnosis and care of patients with inadequate relief from symptom-relieving therapies, including broadly available specific IgE tests, advances in understanding of immune mechanisms, and newer allergen immunotherapies including oral tablet immunotherapy.

Join Dr. DuBuske as he reviews these important updates to provide clinicians with the knowledge and skills to provide care of children and adolescents with AR and ARC that is aligned with the latest evidence and best-practices.
