Event Description


A range of case studies will be discussed that focus on considerations for starting a patient on treatment. Cases will also reinforce how to best manage a patient already on treatment and how to monitor patients in your care not yet needing treatment. 
<br></br>
Attendees are very welcome to send cases to Lucie.Perrissel@ashm.org.au prior to the course, or bring any cases that they would like to discuss with the group on the day (1 HBV CPD point for mentoring activity). 
<br></br>
At the end of this session, participants should be able to:
<br></br>
•	Screen at-risk patients, accurately diagnose CHB infection and assess phase of the disease
<br></br>
•	Monitor patients appropriately, establish suitability for treatment
<br></br>
•	Discuss aims of treatment, antiviral treatment options, duration of therapy and definitions of response
<br></br>
•	Monitor patients on treatment according to established protocols, recognise and manage treatment response, resistance, hepatitis flares, and encourage compliance
<br></br>
•	Recognise risk factors, clinical signs, symptoms and complications of advanced liver disease and manage or refer to specialist care appropriately
<br></br>
