Cancer
Trust Your Gut
Upper GI cancers have some of the lowest survival rates out of all major cancers. They are often only diagnosed late due to vague/non-specific symptoms. There are no early detection tests or population-based screening programs. Patients often present to a GP multiple times with various symptoms before receiving a diagnosis. Delays from symptom onset to referral indicate the need for further education of the public and GPs on symptoms warranting urgent referral. This educational activity focuses on increasing awareness of stomach and oesophageal cancers with regards to prompt patient identification and optimal referral within 2 weeks for investigation and specialist review.
Genetic Disorder
Piecing it together: maybe it’s mitochondrial disease
This activity focuses on the timely identification, appropriate initial management, optimal referral of patients with suspected mitochondrial disease and an emphasis towards confirmed genetic diagnosis, where possible. It will also aim to improve capacity for general practitioners (GPs) to support newly diagnosed patients and their carers.
Diabetes
BEYOND GLYCAEMIC CONTROL: Exploring the benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors for patients with cardio-renal comorbidities
This activity is an online medical education activity that aims to provide education to GPs on the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in T2DM, with a particular emphasis on the use of these agents in patients with diabetic kidney disease and heart failure. In addition, emerging evidence around the use of SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with non-diabetic kidney disease and patients with heart failure in the absence of T2DM is presented.

The changing face of Head and Neck Cancer
Head and Neck Cancer refers to the cancers of the head and neck region, particularly to mucosal cancers affecting the oral cavity, pharynx, sinonasal cavity, and larynx.
