PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) presents complex, lifelong challenges that impact patients’ quality of life—from growth suppression in children to long-term metabolic and psychological effects. This symposium offers clinicians a unique opportunity to build confidence in managing CAH, especially amid the emergence of innovative therapies that may reduce reliance on glucocorticoids. Gain insights into timely diagnosis, individualized treatment strategies, and optimizing care during critical transitions such as puberty and adulthood.

Join us to explore cutting-edge advances and improve outcomes for pediatric and adolescent patients living with this rare, often misunderstood condition. Empower your practice with the latest in CAH management.

Learning objectives:

Upon completion of this activity, participants will have greater competence related to:

  • Use of new therapeutic approaches for managing pediatric/adolescent patients with CAH
  • Comprehensive care in pediatric/adolescent patients with CAH
  • Timely diagnosis and management (including intensification or adjustment to pharmacologic management) in pediatric/adolescent patients with CAH

Demonstrate greater confidence in their ability to:

  • Comprehensively manage CAH in the pediatric population

CMEs will be offered.
