Bronchiectasis is a complex and increasingly prevalent condition often overlooked in clinical practice, with frequent overlap with other respiratory diseases such as COPD and asthma. Persistent airway inflammation, chronic infection, and mucus dysfunction drive disease progression, leading to significant morbidity and healthcare burden. As the clinical burden of bronchiectasis becomes increasingly recognized, there is an urgent need to better understand the underlying mechanisms of neutrophilic inflammation, alongside efforts to improve early diagnosis and explore current and emerging treatment options that target this vicious cycle.
Don’t miss this CME symposium presented by National Jewish Health, where a panel of leading pulmonologists will tackle the evolving challenge, and emerging opportunities, in bronchiectasis management. From diagnostic workups to airway clearance and exacerbation control, the discussion will blend expert insight with real-world clinical scenarios and patient perspectives. Attendees will also get an inside look at a newly FDA-approved therapy, with practical strategies for integrating it into personalized treatment plans. Whether you're navigating diagnostic uncertainty or refining long-term care, this session will equip you with the tools to elevate patient-centered care in bronchiectasis.
Target Audience:
Primary Care Physicians, Pulmonologists, Radiologists, as well as Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants in those specialties.
