International Infectious Disease Videoconference

About this Event
In collaboration with Clinica Good Hope in Peru and Universidad Peruana Union (Lima, Peru), we developed a videoconferencing program that consisted of clinical case presentations once a month. We also have the participation of the following sites: Hospital Padre Hurtado (Chile), Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (England), and the Peruvian American Medical Society.
The objective of this educational activity was to expand the knowledge about infections of low prevalence in the participating countries, focusing mainly in tropical medicine and immunocompromised hosts. The format consisted of sessions of 1-hour duration, in which 1 clinical case is presented by a teaching institutions using PowerPoint. The diagnosis of the cases is unknown by all the participants. After each presentation, an attending physician was invited to discuss the differential diagnosis and treatment of the clinical cases. Then, the presenter reveals the diagnosis and provides a brief review of the topic. Lastly, a few additional minutes are assigned for questions and comments.
