Highlight of the Month
This month's highlight is Treating LTBI in Special Situations from the Southeastern National TB Center (SNTC). This self-paced online course consists of interactive case-based modules that provide an approach to treating latent TB infection in several special populations. These include contacts to drug-resistant TB, individuals with hepatitis, individuals with HIV/AIDS, infants and children, pregnant women, individuals with renal failure, individuals due to begin treatment with TNF-antagonists, and transplant candidates and recipients. The course also includes 5 reference books that provide additional information to participants. |
