Realizing the Potential of Rapid-Acting Treatments for Depression: Key Clinical Evidence, Practical Considerations, and Best Practices for Individualized, Patient-Centered Care

Optimal management of depression begins with adequate screening and early introduction of appropriate therapy. However, monoaminergic antidepressant therapies, which are currently considered the standard of care, have several limitations, such as slow therapeutic response times, suboptimal efficacy and remission rates, and adverse effects that may impact patient adherence.

Recent research has focused on novel pathways involved in the etiology of depression, including glutamatergic and GABAergic modulation. For example, neuroactive steroids such as zuranolone act as positive allosteric modulators of the GABA-A receptor. In 2023, zuranolone became the first and only oral therapy to be approved for the treatment of postpartum depression. There have also been advances in glutamatergic antidepressants, with the approval of esketamine nasal spray for treatment-resistant depression in 2019 and for depression with acute suicidal ideation or behavior in 2020, as well as the approval of dextromethorphan-bupropion for the treatment of major depressive disorder in 2022.

In order to help clinicians remain abreast of the latest treatment options for depression, PeerView recently held a Candid Conversations & Clinical Consults educational symposium, featuring a panel of psychiatric–mental health nursing faculty. These depression experts paired compelling, real-world case scenarios with practice-changing evidence to illustrate how to integrate novel and emerging treatments for depression into clinical practice, including strategies to identify patients who may benefit from these treatments, and how to use shared decision-making to craft individualized treatment plans.

In the United States, the prevalence of obesity has been steadily increasing. Despite the number of obesity specialists in the United States multiplying five-fold from 2011 to 2019, there is an inadequate number of trained professionals to treat all people requiring obesity-targeted care. Primary care is often the first and only touch point for many people with obesity (PwO), and there is a need to equip and prepare primary care professionals (PCPs) to treat this patient population with empathetic, effective, and evidence-based obesity-targeted care. This PeerView Train-the-Trainer MasterClass activity combines concise overviews of essential evidence with training resources to help you, as an obesity specialist, lead the charge to educate your PCP colleagues. Using practical exercises, experts provide guidance on strategies and tactics you can use to create your own training workshop for PCPs. In addition to the Train-the-Trainer video, participants also have free access to a slide library, surveys, and practice aids to create their own independent training workshop. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Address misperceptions and weight biases held by many PCPs to minimize the downstream effects and complications in people with obesity; and Assist PCPs in combating clinical inertia and encouraging early intervention in people with or at risk for obesity

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic disease that affects a significant portion of the US population. The current treatment paradigm for AD is complex, involving multiple active drugs tailored to different body parts, stages of the disease, and severity levels, in addition to moisturizers, bathing practices, and lifestyle recommendations. However, the effectiveness of certain available treatment options is limited because of concerns regarding efficacy, tolerability, and safety. In recent years, there have been significant advancements in the treatment of AD, including the approval of the first biologic agent and the ongoing clinical development of targeted therapies. In this activity, a panel of experts discuss the severity of AD across different patient populations, considering the chronic and heterogeneous nature of the disease, and the underlying pathophysiologic processes that contribute to the development of AD. In addition, they explore individualizing treatment for patients with moderate to severe AD, with a goal of minimizing and preventing flares. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: Diagnose the severity of AD across different patient populations, considering the chronic and heterogeneous nature of the disease; Describe underlying pathophysiologic processes that contribute to the development of AD, and provide rationale for the use of targeted biologic therapy; and Select appropriate treatment for patients with moderate to severe AD, including biologic agents as appropriate, according to recent clinical evidence and current guidelines, with a goal of minimizing/preventing flares
