Dear Colleagues,

From our conversations with clinicians over the past 16 years, we have come to understand how difficult it is to juggle the responsibilities of your busy practice—from patient care and medical challenges to budgets and administration—while staying up-to-date on the latest developments, treatments, and practices in health care. We have listened to your wonderful suggestions and have developed what we believe is an exceptional program in Baltimore. We’re delighted to invite you to Current Clinical Issues in Primary Care, presented at Pri-Med® Mid-Atlantic Conference & Exhibition.

This exciting 2-day primary care-focused CME course, developed and presented by the distinguished faculty of Harvard Medical School and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, features more than 30 lectures on topics that include dermatology, women’s health, updates in medical literature, pediatrics, and more.

Current Clinical Issues in Primary Care will provide the opportunity to earn up to 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ at lectures presented by faculty of Harvard Medical School and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. You will also have time to network with other clinicians at an educational activity specifically tailored to the needs of primary care providers.

Our goal in developing quality CME courses is always to inspire, empower, and inform. We invite you to take an active part in the future of health care by attending this premier CME course, Current Clinical Issues in Primary Care.

THURSDAY, AUgUST 4

Mindful ignorance in Modern MedicineThomas E. Finucane, MD

For researchers, areas of ignorance are necessary conditions for discovery. For clinicians, caring for patients in these conditions is an inevitable challenge. For example, why do we think that “UTI” causes delirium? And … what’s a “UTI”? This talk will present a typology of ignorance and suggestions for management.

Dr Finucane is Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins, primarily a clinician and educator in geriatrics, whose primary research focus is to find the way between overtreatment and undertreatment of the frail elderly. And everyone else.

FRIDAY, AUgUST 5

Back to the Future: yesterday’s ideas, Tomorrow’s CuresVikas P. Sukhatme, MD, PhD

There exist many scientifically promising, immediately implementable and affordable therapies that are not part of mainstream medicine. Many of these ideas are quite old. Some use FDA-approved drugs in a new indication. Others focus on lifestyle or dietary manipulations. Yet others rely on nutritional supplements. These therapies share one common feature: they languish because there is not enough money to be made on them and so there is little incentive for industry to fund their development and to rigorously test them in human studies. Dr Sukhatme will discuss the importance and benefits of studying these “fiscal orphans”—drawing largely on fascinating stories from the world of cancer—and discuss challenges in trying to make them more widely available and accepted. He will suggest how the informed, engaged and empowered patient can drive this process.
