Course Description

Newer therapies are now available for the treatment of Rett syndrome, but questions remain about how to integrate them into care, particularly in community-based settings. Join an expert panel – featuring a neurologist from an International Rett Syndrome Foundation (IRSF)-designated Rett syndrome center of excellence, a community-based neurologist, and a patient advocate from IRSF who will elucidate the central role of the neurologist in the care of patients with Rett syndrome. The panel will describe how to recognize and diagnose Rett syndrome and explore the latest findings on newly available treatment options and their place in team-based care. Case-based discussions will highlight strategies to overcome challenges faced by community-based clinicians and provide guidance for neurologists initiating treatment and working with the greater care team to monitor and manage adverse events, as well as when and how to refer patients to centers of excellence. This activity is the first in a larger three-part educational initiative aimed at bettering outcomes for patients with Rett syndrome.

Course Description

With newer therapies now available for the treatment of Rett syndrome, it is essential that the challenges of managing patients with rare diseases, such as Rett syndrome in resource-poor areas or “care deserts” be addressed.

Join a neurologist and a gastroenterologist from Boston Children’s Hospital, an International Rett Syndrome Foundation (IRSF)-designated center of excellence, as well as a local neurologist “champion,” who will provide an overview of newly available therapies for the treatment of Rett syndrome and explore the increased importance of neurologist-gastroenterologist collaboration for adverse event monitoring and management. These experts will also review the need for lifelong, multidisciplinary team-based care for Rett syndrome patients, and share practical strategies to improve care access for patients who may not have geographic access. Case-based discussions will explore the unique unmet care needs in community-based settings in the region and offer targeted solutions to building a multidisciplinary care team in the community and effectively leveraging new treatment options in the clinic. This activity is the second in a larger three-part educational initiative aimed at bettering outcomes for patients with Rett syndrome.

Course Description

Integrating newer agents for the treatment of Rett syndrome into clinical practice can be challenging, particularly in community settings. In this activity, an expert panel will convene featuring a neurologist from an International Rett Syndrome Foundation (IRSF)-designated center of excellence and a community-based multidisciplinary team, featuring a neurologist, a gastroenterologist, a physical therapist, and a speech therapist. Panelists will discuss their real-world experiences integrating novel treatments for Rett syndrome into clinical care. Experts will also share proven strategies to improve care coordination and address barriers for patients with Rett syndrome, including through the use of telehealth and ECHO programs. This activity is the third and final installment in a larger three-part educational initiative aimed at bettering outcomes for patients with Rett syndrome. As such, the panel will also answer questions received in real-time as well as those that have been received during previous parts of the curriculum.
