Pediatric-focused NPs Influencing the Critical State of Foster Care Placement Stability
  • Primary Care
  • 1.25 Contact hours

1.25 NAPNAP Contact Hour. This continuing education activity is offered at a reduced rate to NAPNAP Members. This continuing education activity rate is $12.50 for NAPNAP Members. For non-members, this continuing education activity rate is $25. Due to COVID-19, children are entering the welfare system with a higher level of needs and there are fewer foster homes available. Consequently, placement availability and stability have reached a critical state and larger numbers of children in the welfare system are without placements leading to situations where children are sleeping in CPS offices and hotel rooms. The NP is a gatekeeper for the children and families involved in the welfare system. This presentation will provide practical applications that NPs can implement in their practices to support placement stability and improve the life of the child in foster care.
The Non-operative Management of Solid Organ Injuries: From Trauma Bay to Outpatient Follow-up
  • Primary Care
  • 0.50 Contact hours
$10.00
0.5 NAPNAP Contact Hour. This continuing education activity is offered at a reduced rate to NAPNAP Members. This continuing education activity rate is $5 for NAPNAP Members. For non- members, this continuing education activity rate is $10. Blunt abdominal trauma constitutes more than 80% of abdominal traumas in childhood. The 2019 Journal of Pediatric Surgery Evidence-based Practice systematic review of the non-operative management of solid organ injuries advises it may be safe to send children with solid organ injuries home sooner with less intervention and supports outpatient management with primary care providers. The management of solid organ injuries has been evolving over the last 10 years and understanding these new Pediatric Surgical Association’s guidelines have implications for advanced practice providers in both primary and acute care settings. The lecture will review the epidemiology of pediatric solid organ injury, the indications for non-operative management and will focus on the recommendations which outpatient pediatric-focused NPs can use to advise families on activity, follow-up and need for emergent re-assessment.
Deeper Dive into Endocrine Pathologies in Children/Adolescents with Diabetes Mellitus
  • Primary Care
  • 1.00 Contact hours
$20.00

Diabetes is a chronic condition that requires intensive medical and psychological management with rapidly rising prevalence in the U.S. The most common form of pediatric diabetes is type 1 diabetes, affecting 1.25 million children who are two to four times more likely to have other autoimmune conditions including Hashimoto's thyroiditis, celiac disease and adrenal insufficiency than the general population. Timely screenings as recommended by the American Diabetes Association and proper assessment is key to identifying comorbidities and preventing both diabetes related complications as well as treating associated endocrine pathologies including those that can be potentially life threatening. This case-based, interactive presentation will provide pediatric advanced practice providers with robust clinical pearls on recognizing and managing endocrine disorders commonly seen in patients with diabetes mellitus, type 1.
Preparing Your Pediatric Practice to Care for Adolescents with Opioid Use Disorders
  • Primary Care
  • Controlled Substances CE
  • 1.00 Contact hours
$20.00
1.0 NAPNAP Contact Hour of which contains 1.00 pharmacology, 1.00 Controlled Substances and 0.25 Psychopharmacology content. This continuing education activity is offered at a reduced rate to NAPNAP Members. This continuing education activity rate is $10 for NAPNAP Members. For non- members, this continuing education activity rate is $20. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends medication assisted treatment for adolescents with opioid use disorders (MOUD) but less than 12% of affected youth ever receive treatment and even fewer receive MOUD. In an effort to get evidence-based treatment to people with OUD, in 2021 the HHS relaxed the laws that govern MOUD prescribing. Similar to collaborative care approaches to treatment of other mental health disorders, pediatric-focused NPs should be the first person their patients look to for helping them recover from OUDs. This case-based presentation will give participants an overview of screening and evidence-based treatment for youth with OUDs, followed by practical advice and resources for preparing a practice to care for this population.
Unpacking our Baggage: Mitigating Implicit Bias to Reduce Health Inequities in Youth
