ePrimaryCare Review podcast is part of the highly successful eLiterature Review series. Over 50,000 health care providers are subscribed to eLiterature Review in areas such as viral hepatitis, HIV, pulmonology, and diabetes. Join your colleagues in this highly-rated educational program.
ePrimaryCare Review Volume 1 covers key topics such as:
HIV: Provider and patient barriers to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)
Type 2 diabetes: Management of older adults
COPD: Current and emerging therapies and individualizing therapies
COPD: Inhaled therapy strategies
It is practically impossible for time-pressed clinicians to stay current with new clinical developments by reading medical literature alone, despite the value of doing so. To address this, the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine (JHUSOM), in partnership with DKBmed, has enhanced the way clinicians receive this vital information through our highly successful eLiterature Review series, spanning a variety of disease states and covering a wide range of clinical expertise. The nuances of each disease require a tailored approach to facilitate optimal learning techniques and knowledge retention. In previous eLiterature Review, some programs have been specifically directed to the specialist practitioner (eg, eCysticFibrosis, eNeonatalogy), but the majority have targeted a combination of both specialists and primary care clinicians that treat patients with chronic disease (eg, eDiabetes, eViralHepatitis).
ePrimaryCare Review was developed to address all primary care clinicians through their specialty lens – educating clinicians on caring for the conditions they encounter in clinical practice. Primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and nurses are the front-line of care; providing them with expert analysis from the top minds in each clinical field creates a model from which caregivers and patients both continually benefit.

Practice Insights: Managing T2DM in Older Adults

Avoiding hypoglycemia, recognizing cognitive dysfunction, and individualizing treatment to account for renal insufficiency, cardiovascular disease and other comorbidities — these are just some of the factors that impact treatment decision-making for older adults with type 2 diabetes.
In this issue, Dr. Amisha Wallia (Feinberg School of Medicine) and Dr. Susan Karam (Ochsner Medical Center) take us to the exam room to translate the information from their recent Newsletter Issue into real-world clinical practice.

In Clinical Practice: Overcoming Patient Barriers to PrEP
In this issue:
PrEP — pre-exposure prophylaxis to prevent HIV transmission — is safe, it’s effective, and it’s significantly underused in the U.S. One key barrier to increased PrEP use is a lack of awareness and acceptance among the patient populations most at-risk for new HIV infection.
In this podcast, Dr. Douglas Krakower from Harvard Medical School takes us into the exam room to translate the new information in his Newsletter Issue into clinical practice.
