    Cutaneous Manifestations of Systemic Disease

    NP 321: Cutaneous Manifestations of Systemic Disease Room: 203/204/205 The skin is often involved in systemic diseases. In fact, cutaneous manifestations often prove helpful in establishing the correct systemic diagnosis. Cutaneous disease can actually serve as the initial manifestation of a systemic disorder, including an internal malignancy. Various systemic disorders with cutaneous manifestations will be presented on the basis of affected organ systems including Rheumatology, Hepatic, Pulmonary and more.

    Blending Aesthetics & Medical Dermatology

    NP 361: Blending Aesthetics & Medical Dermatology Room: 203/204/205 We will discuss the benefits of cross-training in aesthetics as a provider within medical dermatology clinic. We will break down the science behind lasers, neurotoxins, and dermal fillers and discuss their usefulness in medical dermatology. We will also look at examples and new data that has emerged for using aesthetic modalities to treat common dermatologic conditions and beyond. Learning Objectives: Understand the pathophysiology of common cosmetic concerns and how effective aesthetic-based modalities address these concerns. Formulate appropriate treatment plans using aesthetic-based modalities, pharmaceuticals, and cosmeceuticals in patients of all skin types who seek improvement in facial and skin appearance. Summarize current and emerging therapies that hold promise for the effective treatment of disorders of pigmentation and clinical signs of aging.

    Tips for Clinical Photography

    NP 371: Tips for Clinical Photography Room: 203/204/205 Medical photography has become an important part of clinical practice. Photographs are taken as part of the routine medical record; to verify location of suspicious lesion on the skin; to monitor the severity, extent, and improvement of dermatologic conditions; to educate patients and other providers; and as a core part of telemedicine. Smartphone-based digital photography is widely available and easy to use, yet most medical personnel have never received training on ways to take clinically accurate, highly focused photographs. In this presentation, we will review the "Ten Commandments of smartphone photography." Learning Objectives: Apply photographic techniques that will improve clinical communications and medical records.

    Thursday - 02/09 - 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm

    Bringing Public Health into Clinical Dermatology

    NP 381: Bringing Public Health into Clinical Dermatology Room: 203/204/205 In this session, participants will learn about skin conditions, acute or chronic, that have significance for the health of a population or community. Common examples include acute transmissible diseases such as scabies, STIs, and MRSA infections. Recent important examples include recognizing signs of (and risk factors for) emerging diseases, such as monkeypox. Indeed, because so many diseases have cutaneous manifestations, the index case for a disease outbreak may present in the dermatology clinic. Still, there are many common, noncommunicable skin conditions that may herald a potential threat to some aspect of the nation's public health. We review cases of bioterrorism, food-borne illness, nutritional deficiencies, iatrogenic disorders, vaccine-related mishaps, and exotic infectious diseases. We will also discuss the ways that we can help local, state, and federal health agencies respond to potential threats to public health. Learning Objectives: Recognize conditions seen in routine clinical practice that may have public health significance.
