  • Strategies for Integrating Flu Vaccination into Routine Patient Care
    Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP
    Guest: Laila Woc-Colburn, MD, DTM&H, FACP, FIDSA

    Since annual flu shots help alleviate the severe disease burden on patients and the healthcare system as a whole, it’s important to make flu vaccination a part of every patient visit. Fortunately, tools like appointment reminders, in-office discussions, and infographics can help us integrate this preventative measure into routine patient care and protect them from the flu. To learn more about these strategies, Dr. Charles Turck speaks with Dr. Laila Woc-Colburn, Associate Professor at the Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta.

  • Warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia: How Antibody-Based Therapies Are Revolutionizing Its Management
    Host: Caroline Piatek, MD
    Guest: Irina Murakhovskaya, MD

    Warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA) is a rare condition characterized by the premature destruction of red blood cells mainly by pathogenic IgG optimally active at 37oC. Innovative targeted therapies to address wAIHA are emerging, and many are likely to greatly improve patient outcomes when they reach the clinic. Join Drs. Caroline Piatek and Irina Murakhovskaya as they discuss in detail current and emerging non-antibody and monoclonal antibody therapies for wAIHA and how each has the potential to dramatically improve the treatment landscape for wAIHA.
