Progressive and acute exacerbated interstitial lung diseases are associated with a high burden to people affected, ranging from loss of quality of life, loss of lung function and loss of lifetime. Prevention, diagnosis and treatment of acute ILDs and acute exacerbated ILDs is therefore an important topic for all pulmonologists.

Educational aims

In this webinar acute exacerbation of fibrotic ILDs as well as rapid onset interstitial lung diseases, e.g. MDA-5 associated ILDs and progressive fibrotic ILDs will be discussed and the participants will learn about diagnosis and treatments of these forms of ILDs.

Topics

This webinar will focus on AE-ILDs, rapid progressive ILDs, and ILDs with a PPF phenotype. The presentations are as follows.

• Acute exacerbations in pulmonary fibrosis - Elisabeth Bendstrup
• Acute onset & progressive ILDs - Vincent Cottin
• Round table discussion - the challenges of acute ILDs - Elisabeth Bendstrup, Vincent Cottin, Laura Fabbri, Theodoros Karampitsakos

Target audience

• Pulmonologists
• Clinicians with a special interest in ILD
• Trainees
• Radiologists
• Intesivists

Learning outcomes

Following this webinar, participants will be able to diagnose and treat progressive forms of ILDs.

CME credit

An application for accreditation of this webinar has been made to the European Board for Accreditation in Pneumology (EBAP) for 1 CME credit per 1-hour attendance. If accredited, the CME credit will be granted upon attendance of at least 60 minutes during the live webinar only.

What is a webinar?

A webinar closely simulates a lecture-based teaching experience. The speaker can interact with the audience, just as in a classroom setting. During the webinar, you will be asked to share your opinion on issues related to the topic using interactive polls.

All participants will be able to hear the lecturer and see the slides throughout the presentation. As a participant you will be able to pose questions or discuss ideas with the other participants via the text chat facility and the speaker will respond to the questions via the microphone.
