The Physician Assistant Program, Department of Family and Preventive Medicine Emory University School of Medicine presents the 22nd Annual CME review course for physician assistants preparing for the PA National Certifying Examination (PANCE) or the Recertifying Examination (PANRE). This is a 36 hour, four day comprehensive review of medicine and surgery topics.
OBJECTIVESThe Review consists of lectures to refresh the learner’s knowledge on a wide range of core medical problems and content including reviews of Dermatology, Pediatrics, Fluid and Electrolytes, GI Disorders, Psychiatry, ENT, Ophthalmology, Cardiology, Surgery, Emergency Medicine, Neurological Disorders, Orthopedics, Endocrinology, Pulmonary Disorders, Infectious Disease, HIV/AIDS, Hematology, EKG interpretation, Chest X-ray interpretation, OB-GYN, Rheumatology and other topics. Participants should have a broad base of primary care knowledge that should assist them in passing the national board examinations and to practice up-to-date medical care.
The Review Conference is designed based upon the list of topics potentially on the PANCE / PANRE as provided by the NCCPA, and by review of the PANCE / PANRE board exam matrix of question distribution. Obviously, the exact content of the PANCE and PANRE exams is confidential and not known to the developers of the Review Conference, and no suggestion is made that the Review Conference or practice exam questions represent the level of complexity or distribution of topics on the actual examinations.
At the conclusion of this course, the participant should be able to:■ Plan an organized approach to prepare for the PANCE or PANRE;■ Identify techniques based on learning theory that will enhance exam
performance;■ Utilize testing theory to avoid unnecessary errors;■ Identify clues in test questions to help choose the correct answer
option;■ Identify evidenced-based clinical knowledge resources to utilize for
studying;■ Apply knowledge of risk factors, prevention and clinical manifestations
to arrive at a diagnosis/prognosis to create an initial management plan for several clinical conditions.
WHO SHOULD ATTENDThis course is designed for all physician assistants preparing for the PA Board Certification/Recertification Examination. This course also serves as an excellent overview for nurse practitioners, family physicians, and others interested in refreshing their knowledge in primary care medicine.
