Learn about the latest advances in Infections in Children with Immunodeficiencies or Other Deficits and improve the care of your patients"

This program arises as a response to an important need in the field of Infectious Diseases. Today, this need responds, among other things, to the emergence of certain diseases that are unknown or have little practice (zika, chikungunya, hemorrhagic fevers, among others), and with others that have fallen into oblivion or are unknown to less experienced pharmacists such as diphtheria, measles, pertussis (whooping cough), or flaccid paralysis associated with poliovirus vaccines.

At the therapeutic level, the emergence of resistance (BLEES, MRSA, carbapenem-resistant enterobacteria, etc.), often caused by the unwise and rational use of drugs, creates problems for the clinician perform it comes to initial empirical treatment in certain situations.

On the other hand, parents who refuse vaccines, children from low-income backgrounds, infections in transplant recipients, children with devices and fevers without focus in well-vaccinated children are increasingly common situations that the pharmacist has to deal with.

All this means that, in order to provide the best possible care, the pharmacist must continuously update themselves, even if they are not a specialist, since the percentage of visits or inter-consultations related to infection is very high. If we add to this the increasing amount of information provided by parents, sometimes not always contrasted, professional updating becomes essential to be able to provide adequate information according to the current scientific evidence at all times.
