Topics to be covered

PCOS Update
Prof Robert Norman

The renaming of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome to Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome has been done to more accurately reflect the pathophysiology and clinical manifestations of the condition. As Professor Robert Norman will explain in this talk, the renaming is not simply a rebranding, it is hoped the new name will result in significant improvements in perceptions and misperceptions of the syndrome, as well as lead to better diagnosis, management and quality of life for affected women worldwide.

Implementing the Four Pillars of Heart Failure Management in GP
Dr Robert Hungerford

In Australia, heart failure is now readily diagnosable and manageable. However, there are still delays in identification and commencement of optimal treatment for the condition, leading to unnecessary morbidity for many patients. In this talk, Dr Robert Hungerford will present the key areas that can and should be targeted in heart failure management to improve health outcomes for patients with this common disorder.

Biologics in COPD – 20% of Your Patients Could Benefit
Dr Clare Tiedeman

PBS listing of biologics for COPD is an exciting new development for patients with severe lung disease, who are still symptomatic despite optimal triple therapy. In this talk, respiratory physician Dr Clare Tiedeman will present the evidence for the incorporation of biologics in the management of advanced COPD and their effectiveness, which has proven to be substantial for a significant proportion of patients. Importantly, she will also discuss how to identify those COPD patients who are most likely to benefit from this new treatment and the eligibility criteria for patients to access the new biologics on the PBS.

Frozen Shoulder – A Practical Guide to Assessment and Management
Dr Sushil Pant

Common as frozen shoulder may be in general practice, it can still present a challenge particularly around diagnosis and expectation of recovery time. In this talk, orthopaedic surgeon, Dr Sushil Pant outlines a practical framework for the assessment and identification of frozen shoulder including how to differentiate it from other possible diagnoses. He will also discuss the key aspects of management, as well as when further referral should be considered.
