Welcome!
Before you begin, this self-study CME Web site has several important features and
options.
The content of this CME activity is a guideline for clinical care that
is endorsed by the University of Michigan Health System and updated
regularly.
The main informational sections are
outlined at the top of the screen.
The Guideline consists of several formatted pages of text and tables that
most people find easier to read and review in printed format than on a
computer screen. We recommend
that you:
|
1. |
Read the introductory information on-line ("orientation," "purpose, audience &
acknowledgements," "about CME self study &
credit"). |
2. |
Go to "guideline" and download and print it to read
and retain off-line |
3. |
Go to "CME test & credit request" on-line to
complete the knowledge test and the form registering for credit and
evaluating the activity. |
The knowledge test is immediately scored and correct answers explained. If
you request CME credit, you immediately receive your certificate.
No fee is charged for participating in this CME activity. The UM Hospitals
and Health Centers funded the development of the guideline. The UM
Department of Medical Education funded making this information available
to you as a CME activity.
This self-study activity requires:
|
| • |
