Program Description

Shingles, or herpes zoster, is a common secondary infection for older patients.
Almost all individuals over the age of 50 are latently infected with varicella
zoster virus (VZV) and therefore are at risk of developing shingles with
reactivation of latent VZV. Individuals who develop shingles often experience
debilitating postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), secondary skin infections, eye
problems, or neurologic conditions including an increased risk of stroke.

Despite the existence of vaccines, the number of people vaccinated for shingles
remains low. In large part, this is due to the majority of individuals being
unaware that a vaccine exists, as clinicians often fail to initiate discussion
about it.

This CME Outfitters Live and OnDemand webcast will focus on the burden imposed
by shingles, improving uptake of vaccination and series completion for shingles
through patient education, and applying real-world strategies to implement
shingles immunization protocols.

Intended Audience

Physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, and pharmacists
