Program Overview
IN-PERSON & VIRTUAL CONFERENCE
This course is designed to provide a comprehensive review of the most important advances that have recently been made in Women's Hematology.
About The Program
Women’s
Hematology is a relatively new field, encompassing presentations and outcomes
of hematologic disease unique to individuals with the past, present or future
potential to menstruate or become pregnant, that often requires a
multidisciplinary team to care for the patient. The management of severe iron
deficiency anemia, thromboses, bleeding and platelet disorders in women is
often undiagnosed or met with delayed diagnosis. This course will provide
attendees with the tools needed to make these diagnoses early as well as
provide the management skills needed to take care of these patients through
lectures from experts in the field and small group sessions.
Learning Objectives
