The Seattle STD/HIV Prevention Training Center
and the University of Washington announced the release of Hepatitis Web Study, a
website designed for healthcare workers who provide clinical care to persons
with viral hepatitis. This project was funded by CDC's Division of Viral
Hepatitis. The website features:
- Fourteen interactive, clinically-relevant case
studies, each with a discussion, high quality illustrations and graphics, and
links, that highlight and illustrate key recommendations from national
guidelines;
- Free continuing education credits, including
an easy way to print CME/CNE documentation and an electronic CE tracker;
- Numerous high quality figures that the user
can easily download into PowerPoint slides;
- Reference linked to Pub Med abstracts, federal
guidelines sites, and/or CDC MMWR documents.
The site will be maintained and updated on an
ongoing basis and will continue to be expanded. Please visit the site and share
the address with your colleagues! To access this valuable resource, go to:
