- Enduring Activity: Clinical Updates in Alzheimer’s Disease Symposium - Understanding Biomarkers in Alzheimer’s Disease
Target Audience
This activity is targeted toward physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses and other clinicians.
Statement of Need
In the care of patients, memory is not always addressed as an integral part of the patient exam unless there is a complaint of memory loss. Therefore, identification of patients with memory loss often is identified later in the course of dementia. This program will equip primary care providers with knowledge of basic cognitive screening tests and brain imaging to identify patients who would benefit from specialized treatment. This would result in earlier diagnosis and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
Objectives
At the conclusion of this offering, the participant will be able to:
• Determine when biomarkers are used in the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease
• List the different types of biomarkers available for diagnosing Alzheimer’s Disease
• Recognize limitations in the use of these biomarkers
