0397-6_PAFMG_Synergy Summit_Mastering the Menopausal Transition_Live
Synergy Summit Description:
The Covid-19 pandemic, which began four years ago, has led to significant physical and mental burnout among healthcare workers. Despite the industry’s recovery, burnout persists due to factors such as resource shortages, insufficient education on best practices, unsustainable workloads, and a lack of support systems. Burnout can negatively impact patient care by reducing the quality of interactions between healthcare providers and patients, leading to poorer communication, loss of pertinent information, and increased likelihood of errors. This PAMF retreat offers a platform for physicians and healthcare providers to engage in educational medical activities, fostering a sense of community and belonging with the ultimate aim to improve patient care and satisfaction. A keynote address on “Transformative Care” will be featured along with various breakout sessions that will cover topics including virtual reality to reduce clinician burnout, wellbeing, cancer care, integrative medicine, narrative medicine, environmental health, and the link between fermented foods and a healthier gut microbiome. These educational activities are aimed to educate our healthcare providers and better equip them to educate their patients, empowering them with knowledge about their health conditions and treatments.
Presentation Description:
This session offers a comprehensive examination of the menopausal transition, focusing on contemporary strategies for managing this pivotal phase in women's health. Participants will first delve into the impact of the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) on current practices in prescribing hormone therapy, understanding how its findings have shaped clinical guidelines and patient care. The course will then provide actionable strategies for alleviating menopausal hot flashes, equipping participants with at least two evidence-based recommendations to offer their patients for effective symptom management. Additionally, attendees will explore the safest formulations of hormone therapy, discussing various options and their risk profiles to ensure informed decision-making in patient care. By the end of the session, participants will be well-prepared to address menopausal symptoms and provide evidence-based recommendations to optimize patient health during this transition.
