The challenges of managing the neuropsychiatric and psychological effects of modulators: Practical and clinical implications.
Tuesday 3 June – Half-day
14:00 - 18:00
This course is organised by the European Psychosocial Special Interest Group (EPSIG) and the ECFS Mental Health Working Group. We will explore how CF teams are managing the neuropsychiatric and psychological effects of modulators. This course will include a review of the evidence on side-effects related to new genetic modulators as well as strategies CF Teams are using to manage them. The course will include case presentations on the assessment of side-effects and clinical interventions that have been used to address them. We will emphasize practical approaches to screening and intervention in this new era of modulator therapy. Cases will cover the life span from childhood through adulthood.
