Eat Drink and Be Wary: Modern Foodborne Infections and Food Safety for Savvy Clinicians
Activity Details
Activity Name: Eat Drink and Be Wary: Modern Foodborne Infections and Food Safety for Savvy Clinicians
Needs Assessment: Everyone eats, and everyone suffers foodborne infections (FBIs). Many are relatively mild. Nonetheless, every year, the W.H.O estimates, FBIs strike one in ten people and cause nearly half a million deaths. Accordingly, while farm-to-fork chains lengthen?pathogens evolve?outbreaks spread?and humans change (not only in what they eat, but their susceptibility to severe outcomes from FBIs), preventive tactics and provider education must also keep pace.
Course Objectives: At the conclusion of this course, participants should be able to: (1) Name 3 key features of the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2011 (2) Describe recent trends in the epidemiology of Salmonella, Campylobacter, norovirus and E. coli 0157:H7 and other Shiga-toxin producing E. coli (STECs) (3) Diagnose and treat Salmonella, Campylobacter, norovirus and STEC infections Recognize acute and long-term consequences of foodborne infections (4) Discuss the farm-to-fork movement of antimicrobial-resistant organisms in modern food chains (5) Understand the transmission and consequences of infections due to Listeria and Toxoplasma contracted during pregnancy (6) Describe the diverse vehicles, clinical manifestations and modern treatment of foodborne botulism (7) Cite legal and corporate consequences of major foodborne outbreaks (8) Update knowledge of cholera vaccines currently used in international outbreaks and high-risk travelers (9) Recognize modern epidemiology and clinical features of several foodborne parasites (Cyclospora, Anisakis, Trichinella, Angiostrongylus, AKA ?rat lungworm?) currently seen in the U.S. (10) Counsel patients on specific strategies to avoid foodborne infections
